I performed the connection optimization update (I think that is what it was called) last night. As soon as installation completed, HP Support Assistant started a job, doing I have no idea what, that has been running for 17 hours. I would like to know whether the job is doing anything necessary or if I can safely end it.
Solved! Go to Solution.
