I was notified of three updates two days ago and proceeded to install them before upgrading to Windows 10.

I was warned that several restarts might be necessary.

Several restarts did occur but I now find that every time I try to launch HP Assistant it simply tells me that a restart is necessary. This must have occurred at least 10 times.

I cannot get any further and assume the software has ceased to function properly.

Thanks, your solution matched my instinct but I just wanted to check unless there was another known issue with the latest updates.

 

I uninstalled the Support Assistant as suggested and downloaded the latest version.

 

All working well.
