  1. Unable to install HP Driver


    I got rid of my old printer and am trying to uninstall the old driver. When ever I try it says only administrators may change drivers, and puts it back. I went into properties and gave myself full permissions for full control and it still won't let me. I am the sole user

    Re-Installing HP drivers....

    Hey guys!

    So I just reformatted my Aunt's HP/Compaq Laptop (CQ42-292TX) and now I'm installing the drivers, but it looks like it won't

    I've tried downloading and installing the drivers from the HP website, and all of them would just fail. (Even if they finished) Also the Intel driver would just show "This computer does not meet the requirements.." blah blah blah even if there's no driver installed.

    the only drivers I need is:

    Wi-Fi driver

    what I have:
    Graphics Driver (I already have the latest from AMD and Intel...)

    the AMD driver would just finish installing but Catalyst won't show up :/

    I'll try safe mode

    Quick replies and any suggestions are welcome (except setting it to Wumbo)

    Thanks!

  3. Unable to install HP printer

    What is the difference between step 2 and step 3? I know how to "remove device" in the devices and printers section of control panel. But how do I find and uninstall the drivers? The HP Full Feature Software is not installed, though maybe some registry remnants are messing things up?

    Thanks everyone! Unable to install HP Driver :)

    unable to install bluetooth adapter driver software

    Hi Neil,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    As you are unable to install the software for the driver in normal mode, I suggest you to install the same in compatibility mode by following the steps provided below:

    • Right click on the setup file of the software and select
      “Properties”.
    • Select “Compatibility” Tab.
    • Place a check mark next to“Run this program in Compatibility mode” and select operating system from the drop down list.
    • Let the software install and then check thefunctionality.

    Hope this helps. Keep us posted on the status for further assistance.
