I have tried more than once to remove/delete items no longer owned listed in HP Support Assistant with no success. Apparently, the information of those items no longer owned is being pulled from HP's records showing my owning 61 items when in reality I only have four (4) items at present. I went through all the items and before closing there were only the four (4) items but when reopened all the old items were still there! HELP!
