Symptom
A "Digital signature not found" message opens every time the computer is started
in Windows XP. This message opens as the Windows Desktop loads.
Solution
Remove the entries for hpupdate.exe and update from the startup menu and then delete
the hpupdate.exe file.
These entries may appear in the following format:
* C:\sj655\hpupdate.exe
* C:\Program files\scanjet\Precision Scan LT\update.exe
Step 1:
Remove the entries from the Start Menu
1. Click Start, then Run. The Run window will open.
2. In the Open box, type msconfig and click OK. The System Configuration
Utility window will open.
3. Click the Startup tab and remove the check marks next to all the HP files.
4. Click Apply, then OK, close the System Configuration Utility window, then click
Close without restart.
Step 2:
Delete the file hpupdate.exe
1. Right-click Start and then click Explore. Windows Explorer will open.
2. Click Tools, then Folder Options. The Folders Options window will open.
3. Click the View tab, select Show hidden files and folders, and then click OK.
4. Click Start, Search, then All Files or folders.
The Find files and folders window will open.
5. In the Name box, type hpupdate.exe. In the Look in box, use the arrow to open
the drop-down menu and then select [C:]. Make sure there is a check mark in the Include
subfolders checkbox.
6. Click Search or Find now. A list of the files found will display.
7. Highlight all of the entries found for the file hpupdate.exe. Click Edit, and
then Delete. Click OK to delete the file(s).
8. Restart the computer system. The message window should not open again.
