OMEN by HP Laptop 17-an0xx
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello , I am the happy owner of this gaming laptop wich runs very well , but i have few questions and maybe you can help me:

I want to do the system restore backup on a usb stick , i have brougt a new samsung  stick usb   3.1 64gb . The program says to me that i can do only 1 system backup. My curent operation system is windows 10 64 home edition and i want to upgrade to pro version do to the posibility of stopping the self update  for 35 days. He is doing update almost every day and thsta gets on my nerves.

Do i need to do the backup before upgrade to pro version of after. Or it doesnt make any sense. The laptop already have a partition with a backup for almost 15gb for system restore.Will be the backup on usb made from that partition? 

Second question is that i have reinstalled from windows market the  last version of Omen comand center and the comand center button doesnt work anymore and have no function. There is a tweak for that? I have search the web and did everything i could but no posibility to make him work.

 

Thank you!

Thank you !

Answer... Yes you need to make the USB Recovery before any altering of the OS. 64GB is a little too big though. A 16-32 GB drive will be just right. You can only make one copy. This copy will return the entire hard drive back to factory specs, including the recovery partition.

 

2. Second question is that i have reinstalled from windows market the  last version of Omen command center and the command center button doesnt work anymore and have no function. There is a tweak for that?

Answer... no there is no fix for the Omen button glitch. Reinstalling the OS to factory seems to be the only fix at the moment. The Omen Command Center should be downloaded only from the Microsoft Store also.

The Omen Command Center i have fix it  by uninstalling the microsoft store version and install the old verion downloded direct from HP site. Seems the old version of command center works better , is lighter and doesnt have that terible sound at start. Buton works aswell!
