I don't know how long ago these programs stopped working since I haven't tried to open them in a long time. Maybe I should just uninstall them.
On My Dell 660 Desktop (Windows 8.1):
1. Backup And Recovery - I don't even remember what this is for, but if I try to open it, I get a window asking me if I want to allow it to make changes to my computer. I click yes, and nothing happens, I just get my Desktop display. I downloaded and tried to install version 1.7. The install process starts, then I get a window telling me that it can only be installed on Dell systems (Huh?). I have a vague recollection of it no longer working after updating from Win 8 to Win 8.1.
2. Dell Update - when I click on it, it just displays my desktop. Nothing else happens. On my Dell tablet, it will put the Dell Update icon in my systray, where I can right or left click for various options. On my 660 Desktop... Nothing!
Any thoughts?
