I've had to do a Clean Install following problems with the Creators Fall WU last Tuesday. I re-installed my Support Assistant this morning and there were three updates shown. Having checked the Drivers updates by Creators Fall I assumed the HP updates had already been installed so deleted them.
My laptop is a bit sluggish but I put that down to the Clean Install and I have spent all day reinstalling software, files & folders etc.
I needed to reinstall my printer just now and in Control Panel there's an error exclamation mark against the laptop. It shows "Status: needs troubleshooting - driver is unavailable". The troubleshooter failed and now shows
Package ID: DeviceCenterDiagnostic
Error Code: ox8000FFFF
Context: Elevated.
(Sorry - I'm having problems inserting a photo.)
I've opened my HP Support Assistant but can't find the updates I deleted. Is there any other way that I can get them please? Is the old route to checking Updates still in place and if it is where is it please? (I've forgotten!)
