Recovery protect tools

I am using Protect Tools on Windows XP with encrypted disk.
XP was hanging so I ran check disk etc - still hanging
So I edited  services / system.ini / boot.ini
I have switched off too many  and windows says "The system cannot log you in"
How do I gain access to reset
I cannot use Safe Mode as I think its switched off in Protect Tools
What / how to boot from USB to allow edit C: unencrytpted
This question was solved.

Hi,
The drive at this point is basically a paper weight. With what you've disabled, if you can't boot into it at all, you won't be able to unlock it. At most you might be able to format it. Either way whatever is on the drive is lost.
You can try giving support a call, to see if they have any suggestions for you if you'd like.

  • HP Protect tool password manager not working with the new version of Mozilla: I got this alert: "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (dpql) isn't associated with any program." please help

    I have an HP ProBook 4520s. I have been using HP Protect tool's Password manager to store and manage my passords for all Login websites in Firefox 3.6. As a result, I just swiped my fingerprint to log on to any website.
    After I installed the version 4 of Firefox, my all my login details do not work anymore. I have tried to reset them but I repeatedly get this error: "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (dpql) isn't associated with any program."
    something like this would have been passed onto the address: "dpql://c:\program%20files%20(x86)\hewlett-packard\hp%20protecttools%20security%20manager\bin\dpminionlineids.dll/qlinkload.htm#id=2".
    Although the password manager works with Internet Explorer 9, I need it to work with Firefox 4 as this is my preferred browser.
    Please help. Thank you!

    I guess this means that IE is more user friendly for HP Password Manager finger swipe recall of passwords, a favorite of mine. I still don't see a post from Firefox as to why they haven't produced fix. So I'll switch to IE until things change. I don't see value in downgrading to a Firefox version that's no longer going to be supported.

    Hello Eng_MG
    I see that you are having problems with the finger print reader on your HP computer.
    I would suggest posting this message in the HP Commercial Forum as well. There will be more users with the same computer and programs. The link will take you to the board specific for your computer.

  • No Protection Tools! I have enabled enhanced security. This is Acrobat XI on Windows 7 64-bit. Did same install on a Win8 server and it's fine.

    I just want the protection tools to show on the Tools dropdown! So I can use them...

    Hi Sara,
    Thanks for putting me in the right place. I'm not much of an
    online-community person!
    Here's what happened after your email:
    1. I went into Acrobat and clicked the down arrow as you described. I
    previously had been clicking in the View menu. I saw the Protection
    tools and I was so excited.
    2. So then I clicked on "allow multiple panels open" whereupon the
    Protection tools disappeared! They did not reappear when I unclicked the
    "allow multiple panels open".
    3. Remembered that I hadn't reinstalled the updates after reinstalling
    Acrobat in hopes that would fix this problem, so I installed the
    updates. I'm now on 11.0.07.
    Sadly, still no protection tools appearing in either the View-> Toolsets
    or the down-arrow in the upper-right corners of the Tools panel. Bummer.
    This is so strange, since the same installation worked great on our Win8
    server!

  • Protect tools

    HP Support,   I have recently upgraded HP Probook 4430s to Win8.1/ 64-bit.   I couldnt find driver for HP Protect Tool and Hot key under drivers list.   Where can i find them if...
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    You're very welcome.
    Sorry that didn't work.
    The only other suggestion I can offer would be to try the W7 hotkey driver from your notebook's support page...
    http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/public/detail?swItemId=ob_110821_1
    When you don't see a full set of drivers for the operating system you installed on your PC's support page, that means that HP does not support it for that operating system--which means that some of the devices will not work or work correctly on that operating system.

  • Uninstall hp protect tool security manager

    I have installed "hp protect tool kit security manager" But I face a problem that when I shut down my system it goes to that point where the windows logon. it does not completely shut down. and when I try to uninstall it demand for pasword, but I didn't gave any password. and when i enter the windows password it gives invalid password error.
    kindly give me some. I don't want to refresh windows.

    Hi @Aqeel_Rafique ,
    Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have looked into your issue about your Elitebook and issues with HP ProtectTools Security Manager password. The password could be the one that you use to log onto your Notebook or entered at the BIOS.
     You could follow these steps, even though, I don't recommend this as it is Security Tools.
    Step 1:Click Start, then "All Programs." Select "HP Protect Tools Security Manager" from the list of programs.
    Step 2:Click "Settings." Click the box to the left of the menu. The green check in the box should disappear, which means that the application is disabled.
    Step 3:Close the window and restart the computer. Then try to uninstall the software
    Provided by 3rd Party site.
    To get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since this is a commercial product. You can do this at Commercial Forums.

  • WIN10 issues with HP Protect Tools Security Manager

    WIN10 won`t install on PC´s with  HP Protect Tools Security Manager (WIN7), as it is incompatible with WIN10 install. program reuires that HP Protect Tools will be uninstalled before proceeding with installation of WIN10. However, this seems to be quite impossible. Just disabling the program with the stemps described earlier does not work. Has anyone info how to UNINSTALL completely the HP Protect Tools Security Manager? I guess HP will notice this issue soon because there are many HP PC owners with WIN7 (probably even WIN8) that are unable to install WIN10,  and  make steps to create a new with WIN10  compatible version  of the Tools Sec. manager, but it will probably take some time.

    Try update your system with HP SoftPaq Download Manager and reinstall Win10.The problem was my old version of HPPTSM. With 8.3.3.... works.My HP 6470b, Win7 64.

  • HP Protect tools and windows 10 (HP 6930p)

    Now that windows 10 is upon us... i want to ask a few simple questions. I know that HP will say that it doesnt support windows 10 for the 6930p because of yada yada yada... but windows 10 is now available for any windows 7 device and that includes the 6930p that comes with windows 7 support. So the way i see it, anyone with windows 7 should have windows 10 support. so will HP release the drivers to support windows 10. i ask this important question because i ran a seperate hard drive to test windows 10. On it, it told me to remove HP protect tools, my encryption (sounds like communism doesnt it?), and Display link. because i like HP Protect tools and the set up of my computer... i do not understand why it would force me to remove these. so after doing some searching, i noticed there are updates to protect tools but i want to ask will these updated versions support windows 10 and if so can someone post a link.  Thank you

    Yesterday, I gave a try by installing the same software ( compatible for 8.1 ) sp63727.exe on Windows 10. After restarting it didn't show the finger reader option while login. Today, after login using password, the Protect tools pops up and shows the finger reader setting ( setting which was in Windows 8.1 before upgrade ) taken automatically, and asked to save the config. Now I can login using finger reader successfully. I am not sure Windows 10 updated any files automatically after findin the Protect tools. Give a try reinstalling the same sp63727.exe and update this thread.

    Solution to what, what exactly is your problem with Protect Tools and the upgrade process? No way anyone can help if you are not specific with your issues.

  • Re: Recovery DVD tool starts with error message

    Hello.
    Can anyone tell me why when I run "create recovery dvd tool" message appear with "unable to find recovery partition ..."???
    It's a brand new Satellite A660-1c3 bought and opened today.

    This happen if the recovery image is removed or deleted.
    When you buy new notebook model and start it for the first time preinstalled image must be installed first.
    So if you are able to use preinstalled operating system that means you got notebook with recovery image on it. I dont know what have you done but fact is that partitions structure or saved data is changed.
    Have you changed something in disc management tool (expand partitions, changing partitions capacity)?

    That is indeed unfortunate. You will need to order a recovery disk set from HP or an HP Partnet. Here is how to order a recovery disk set.
