Worry free sw is royal pain - any ideas ?
ANY advice appreciated.Customer bought 3 of these to replace older PC's as
folks go on vacation this summer. : http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/us/en...5-3747465.html They come with " HP network " softwa www.hp.com/go/worryfree , that is totally not needed at this user's site. I saw all of these SQL items listed in system event log ... over and over and over and wondering " why does this box have SQL ? " , then noticed that it's related to this HP stuff. I tried control panel - hoping for a CONFIG or CHANGE option to turn each off, but that's not an option. Only uninstall - which biz owner doesn't want to do - Yet. Is there a way to NOT have all of this SQL/HP specific stuff running on these models ? Is it a matter of reg hacks or is there some app at HP that can disable it all ? Box came with no paperwork about it - just a readme file that shows how to USE it - not disable it. Irritating pop-ups in systray that " this isn't configured yet" and " click here to register" , yada yada yada... When I clicked it , it wants me to REGISTER with the domain server. The dell server doesn't know about this HP sw. It's a small shop and no one there would even notice if server logs errors. The sw is designed for a domain with remote sites so admin's can monitor/ control pc remotely etc. HP icon in systray for every account and can't turn it off ( via HP menus) When I log on as "Admin" account, there are popups in systray for : - Protect Tools - Encryption manager - Client Mgr - Intel vPro etc Back to HP site/ Google - to see if any pointers. ANY advice/ info appreciated. |
