hp support assistant wont download

WelloGhost · ‎08-27-2020

my brother uninstalled hp support assistant from my PC by accident, but when i tried to reinstall it, i get a message saying "a newer version hp support assistant is installed" , i made a new windows account and tried to reinstall it but it didn't work, i keep getting the same message.

edit: i managed to install it in a new windows account, but i still cant install it on my actual account, how can i install it?

@WelloGhost,

Look in "APPS and features".. Un-install all references to the program. Re-boot, and then re-install.
