I have not checked for updates through the HP Support assistant since 12/20/2012. I had a Windows 7 OS and updated to Windows 10 when the free OS update was offered. When I check for new updates, a popup window comes up with the following: This app has been blocked for your protection. An Administrator has blocked you from running this app. For more info, contact your administrator. HPSFUpdater.exe

I am logged in as admin.
