Re: laptop error: location is not available

Hello spadylady,
Welcome to the HP Forums.

I see that you're getting an error message on your Notebook "location is not available". I will try to help you with this.

I would like you to take a look at this Youtube video: Error Message:Location is not available the file or directory. It provides you with something to try that may correct the issues.

Also you can do a system file check: Using System File Checker to Restore System Files. This document will help you on doing this.

I hope that helps you out, let me know how it goes. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.
