Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.

 

After reading your post, I did go through the link and found out it's not HP's authenticate website and HP support assistant is not facing any issue. 

Please do not install any HP's related software drivers from 3rd part webpage. All HP's software and drivers are available on Our official webpage: https://support.hp.com/in-en/drivers

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
