I have the same problem. unwanted periodic pop-up dialog box trying to find the "hpdiags" app in the windows store which I uninstalled months ago. just prior to the pop up looking for the app, you can see a command line window popping up trying to run something (since it disappears quickly, I can only guess it is trying to run "hpdiags". Ever since I uninstalled HPDIAGS this annoying pop up keeps interrupting my work.
I followed the update windows and update HP support app. This did not fix the issue.
This must have been a bug in the way the old hpdiags app installs itself. When it gets uninstalled, it still leaves something in the start-up/ cmd line script or something that triggers its own launch, only to find the app doesn't exist... Is this in the config file? the

Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.
Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, however, to provide an accurate resolution, I need a few more details:
- Did this happen after a recent window or software update?
- Have you made any hardware/software changes?
- What is the product number of your device? Use this link to find it: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03754824
Keep me posted for further assistance.
