Product Number: QC330PA#ABG
It's been happening for ages, but I've only just gotten around to reporting it.
Some time back, my home server died, so I repurposed my dv6 and installed Windows Server 2016 Standard x64.
Installed the HP tools/drivers. But HP Support Assistant always crashes (exits with no explination) when I click on Troubleshooting and fixes.
Found lots of the following in the Event log for "Hewlett-Packard":

wscapi.dll is a System Center DLL, unless HP have something with the same name...
I know this notebook is way out of support but any ideas?
Thanks
