HP Support Assistant

[Smile0011]

I uninstalled Hp Support Assistant from my PC and downloaded the latest version of the Hp support Assistant from the Hp site.

When I run the file, it says, a new version of the Hp support assistant is downloaded and setup will close now.

But I can't see the Hp support assistant App that I uninstalled previously, and no Hp support assistant icon appears after restarting my pc.

How to fix this and get Hp support assistant app back on my pc?
