CleanWrite

I do not mind using Support Assistant from time to time. I do not want to uninstall it, but I will if this condition cannot be met. I sometimes ned to elevate HPSA to run as Administrator in order for it to install drivers and do its job. I cannon do that if it is already running and trying to shut it down after launch is a nightmare of process whackamole, with the only clean way to do a total uninstall then reinstall than run as Admin.  I also ned to shut it down after launch on another laptop as it not only bogs it down but virtual grinds it to a halt.

I do not want to streamline it. I do not want to troubleshoot it. I want to be able to take back control and be able to clear my PC for running other things; as between HPSA and a few other programs going to war in the background the network itself is suffering. I do not need to  trouble shoot HPSA OR my network. I need a clean shut down of HPSA after I have had it do what I need.

How do I shut it down after launch? Or is uninstalling it my ONLY option?
