Probook 6470b
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello,

 

Windows 10 tries to update to version 1703, but during the install it says "Embedded Securty for HP ProtectTools" is not compatible. It tried to uninstall it when I pressed to button, but then it failed (as can be seen in the screenshot).

I tried to remove "Embedded Securty for HP ProtectTools" from Programs and Features in the Control Panel, but it starts HP ProtecTools Security Manager instead of uninstalling it. I don't see any way to remove "Embedded Securty for HP ProtectTools" from that program either.

 

What would be the right coarse of actions to take? I'd like to update windows.
