Hello!
The OMEN macro button stopped working. I think it's after updating this program. How to solve this problem? What should I pay attention to? What should I reinstall?

Thank you!

HP Omen 17-an019na Lighting option [Omen Command Center]

Hi, guys!

I'm kinda new here, just bought my first HP Omen laptop.

I love it so far, but there's just one problem I want to resolve:

Omen Command Center doesn't have "Lighting" option. I've tried updating the software, I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it. Nothing. Nada.

Does that mean my laptop's keyboard doesn't support that?
I'm fine with either answer, just custom keyboard colours would have been a nice addition to this beautiful thing.

Thanks, guys!

I can't move my cursor while typing. No, I refuse to delete my synaptics driver as I get a warning that my touchpad might not even be functionable after a reboot. Also, turning off smartsense doesn't do anything either. Any help?

HP Thunderbolt dock 3 not working for zbook g3

$

Thunderbolt dock 3 not working aside from acting as a power src nothing else works. USB ports not recognized. Monitors not recognized. Network not recognized. I have installed all drivers etc ad infinitum. Dock did work briefly now no longer. Thunderbolt Software app shows no devices even when dock is connected to PC. And even when the windows 'Open devices and  Printers' tray icon shows the dock as connected. Go figure!

 

AFAIR when Thunderbolt Software app did *briefly* show the dock as a connected device the dock has *some* chance of working. This is a replacement dock. Its worse than the previous one as that one at least recognized monitors. Is there any chance of getting this working? I emailed hp support and manufacturer but heard nothing back? Not clear how to otherwise get support for this. Is there an alternative to Thuderbolt? It seems to have serious flaws.

Three-Finger touchpad click as middle-click (Chrome new tab, etc.)

$

I bought my shiny slim Envy 13 (2017/2018) notebook recently but somehow felt discomfort navigating Chrome without a physical button mapped as mouse middle click to open a link in a new tab. Luckily, the Windows 10 touchpad is recognizing a wide variety of gestures, but the Synaptics driver dialog only allows you to enable/disable the so called "Three-Finger Tap". Help tells you right away that this is only for opening the Cortana Search. What a shame. (Of course I have completely disabled the voice assistant in the first place.)

I have disabled several gestures I clearly won't use, left some that I'll probably won't use, but still wasn't able to configure the most important trio - I want to:

  • Double click to Click.
  • Two-finger "tap" for a right mouse button click - no problem to configure as seen above.
  • Three-finger "tap" for a middle mouse button click - no options for that in Synaptics ClickPad settings.

Weirdly, you can still configure this in the Registry:

  1. Push Win+R, type "regedit", enter.
  2. Head to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Synaptics\SynTP\TouchPadSMB2cTM3384-1<= this last key can be different on your system.
  3. Change 3FingerTapAction to 4 - this associates the mouse middle button click action
  4. Change 3FingerTapPlugInActionID to 11 - this stops opening Cortana at the same time

I don't quite understand the mechanics. If I only change the first value, the middle click gesture works most of the time in Chrome, but occassionally the Cortana Search pops up along, which is very annoying. The Plugins that those codes refer to are defined here:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Synaptics\SynTPPlugIns\SynTP
Each numbered action has a key in there, so if your "3FingerTapPlugInActionID" is set to the default dword:00000061 (decimal 97), it executes the "plugin" in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Synaptics\SynTPPlugIns\SynTP\97 which is Launch Cortana. Note that 0 opens the Start menu, while 11 is the No Action.


This way, I'm quite happy with the touchpad and don't use the physical click of the bottom part at all. Obviously, it is Synaptics' weird design choice or bug, I see other notebook manufacturers suffer from the same behavior. Hope this helps!

Hi there!

 

I'm having trouble charging my HP ZBook Studio through a dockingstation over Thunderbolt 3. The docking station I'm using is a HP OMEN Accelerator, which should support a charge back of 60 Watts.

 

Does anyone know how I can charge my laptop through this dockingstation?

 

 

Kind regards,

Nino Dreverman

Remove HP 3D Driveguard

Are there any issues with removing the HP 3D Driveguard application software? Updates are required for the driver each time we update the Operating System. From what I understand this software parks the heads on the hard drive if a sudden drop is detected, which is not needed in our particular environment.

Thanks in advance for any advice on this issue.

I am prompted by the HP support Assistant to install this about once a week. But every time I do, install crashes to a blue screen that contains a Windows message which I can't seem to capture. Maybe something about fat file...?
