HP Support Assistant and Guest mode error?

georgecz — Fri, 06 Feb 2015 21:46:04 GMT

Hello - I have an older HP Pavilion a6700f Quad Core. Computer runs terrific BUT the HP Support Assistant shows an error that tells me the Guest Account is Active making the computer less secure. I disable the account - both using the User Manager and from a command prompt (as admin) but shortly afterward the error pops up again. Has anyone run into this situation before?

Regards

George

This is the wrong forum for home PCs. Try the following:

Your guest account problem rings a bell from long ago. Either I gave up on it or it went away?

I just found an entry in my Action log from two years ago, where I just deleted it.
