Hi @İbrahim382,

 

Welcome to HP Support Community.

 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

 

The error code "-3" in the HP Support Solutions Framework (HPSF) typically points to a problem with installation or runtime configuration. Here’s how to troubleshoot and resolve the issue.

 

Ensure Compatibility

  • Verify that the version of HPSupportSolutionsFramework-13.0.1.131 is compatible with your Windows version and architecture (e.g., 64-bit or 32-bit).
  • If unsure, download the latest version from the HP official support site.

Check for Corruption

  1. Uninstall Previous Version:
    • Open Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features.
    • Locate the HP Support Solutions Framework, uninstall it, and restart your laptop.
  2. Reinstall the Framework:
    • Download the latest installer from the HP website.
    • Run the installer as an administrator by right-clicking on it and selecting Run as Administrator.

Verify Dependencies

  • Ensure that the necessary Windows components are up-to-date:
    • .NET Framework: Install or update the latest version from Microsoft's website.
    • Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributables: Install the latest packages for both x64 and x86.

Check Firewall and Antivirus

  • Temporarily disable your firewall or antivirus software and try running the installer again.
  • If successful, add the HPSF application to the allowed list in your firewall/antivirus software.

Clean Temporary Files

  1. Press Win + R, type temp, and delete all files in the folder.
  2. Repeat with %temp%.
  3. Run Disk Cleanup:
    • Search for it in the Start menu, select your drive, and clean system files.

Use HP PC Hardware Diagnostics (Optional)

  • If the issue persists, download and run HP PC Hardware Diagnostics from the HP website to check for broader system issues.

Update Windows

  • Go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update and install all pending updates.

Try a Clean Boot

  • Perform a clean boot to eliminate startup conflicts:
    • Press Win + R, type msconfig, and hit Enter.
    • Go to the Services tab, check Hide all Microsoft services, and click Disable all.
    • Go to the Startup tab, click Open Task Manager, and disable all startup items.
    • Restart and try running the installer again.

 

I hope this helps.

 

Take care and have a good day.
