Support Assistant won't reinstall

[ScubaJoe1313]

I recently had to uninstall the Support assistant because it had a bug; there were no longer any checkboxes next to updates available.  I used a third-party app, CCleane,r to uninstall the program.  I rebooted the computer to clean up any residuals from the uninstall. 

To get the new app I wnt to this website: https://www8.hp.com/in/en/campaigns/hpsupportassistant/hpsupport.html?jumpid=va_r602_in/en/any/psg/p...

The file name is: sp105523.exe

When I opened the file I got the main page with program info. The next screen was the License agreement page; I clicked accept and then it gave me the install directory of :c:\SWSetup\.  I then got the file extracting page followed by a very brief popup of the cmd/prompt black box.

Then nothing.  The program didn't install!!  No desktop icon, it didn't show up in Settings/Apps, or the start menu.  I tried again and again nothing.  I then went to the install directory and tried the following to .exe files: Setup.exe and InstallHPSA.exe.  Neither one did anything.

I am stumped and any help would be appreciated.

Welcome to HP Community

I have gone through your Post and would like to help

Please uninstall HPSA and restart the Notebook. Then run the SFC SCAN. Link:https://support.microsoft.com/en-in/help/4026529/windows-10-using-system-file-checker

Try reinstalling HPSA

Keep me posted

I tried the cmd from the link you gave me and got an error msg.  I dug a little and found out that you have to run,,,checkhealth and ...scanhealthe before you run ...restorehealth and then run the scan.  The scan found no integrity violations.

I then wiped out the directory for the install failure. I then tried again and, unfortunately, no install.  The install went exactly as I said above.

I would appreciate your assistance.  Not only do I want to do those system updates, but my HP Orbit stopped working and I found out that Support Assistant must be installed for it to work.

Thank you again

Again, thank you for your continued help.

I created a new account, gave it administrator privileges, d/l' ed the file, and attempted the install.  

Same result.

Any further possible solutions would be great.

This seems to be an OS corruption. At this point I suggest you perform a Reset
