win10 installation issues

[paulmars]

Hi, any ideas?

issue 1: I tried to reinstall w\o bloatware. That worked in 2020, but now it installed the bloatware. I even tried twice.

I removed all hp apps shown in control panel. Still computer is slower then before this reinstall. Updates during install were very slow too, so I’m not sure it’s hidden hp bloatware, but maybe it is

issue 2:See 1st attachment. That was 1st boot on this new install. WTF? I get this at every boot now. If i wait about two minutes, then I get 2nd attachment. If I press any key, then i get attachment 4 and I can login.

If i dont wait 2 minutes and just click ok button, then I get attachment 3. If I click my name then I get attachment 4 and I can login.

How do I get ride of that 1st & 3rd screen and make sure that my user name has full adm rights? I’ve never set up a multi user computer.

issue 3: Im told to look here to see my HDD temp:
Open Settings on Windows 10.
Click on System.
Click on Storage.
Under the “More storage settings” section, click the Manage Disks and Volumes option.
I dont have a More storage settings or Manage Disks and Volumes option that i can find.

tks,
paul

Hi,

Perform a clean install of Windows 10 to remove all the bloatware on the system and remove all the partitions on the SSD to ensure there is not any old data on the SSD during the Windows 10 install. See this link, How to do a Clean Install of Windows 10.

to activate the Admin account, from an elevated command prompt, you could use this command:

net user administrator {password} /active:yes where {password} is the admin account password

but where is this bloatware coming from, are you using the recovery partition or the Win10 discs from the original PC purchase.

have you tried downloading the Windows Media Creation Tool and using that to burn an image of the latest Win10 build to a bootable USB stick, then using that to reload Windows?

@paulmars - any news?

[paulmars]

nope. Just using it as is.

no worries.
PM a staff member if you have any developments on this issue and want the thread re-opened. (y)
