@sapphire4227, welcome back to the forum.

If you have not done so, I suggest deleting the messages and updates.  This will allow HPSA to retreive them again and possibly install them.  I believe that I may have provided this information to you in a prior post, but here is a way to check to see if a patch that was released for it was installed:

You can determine if the aforementioned SysID patch has been applied to the system by making sure that productconfig.exe is => 8.3.2.1.  The file can be found at C:\Program Files (x86)\Hewlett-Packard\HP Support Framework\Resources\productconfig.exe

old_geekster . what a peculiar suggestion , as ALL Messages and Updates were removed when the HPSupportAssistant was uninstalled

Thank you for the additional information, @sapphire4227.

I guess I am just peculiar.   I must have mis-read your post.  Did you check to see if the patch that I mentioned in my post has been installed?  The reason for the patch is why you are having the problem.

I have the same issue on both my HP Elitebook 8470p / Elitepad 1000 G2 since last week.

I tried to uninstall and reinstall but the problem remains.

The file ProductConfig.exe is at version 8.3.2.1

Maybe there is some problem with the HP Server.

This issue was fixed with today's update for HP Support Assistant v 8.3.50.9

To update HP Support Assistant follow this directions:

1) Run HP Support Assistant

4) Click "yes" if there are any pending updates

5) Follow the wizard to update HP Support Assistant to the latest version

6) Reboot the machine
