#HP PRINTER DRIVER UNAVAILABLE WINDOWS 10 ERROR SOFTWARE#
"Leftover" bits can cause problems when the software is (re)installed. The logic is simple - the regular uninstall process does not always catch every piece of the old software.
Meanwhile, if the issue is simply one of the existing driver not having been fully uninstalled before the software was reloaded, the following "uninstall" process may resolve the problem. is generally better informed on this type of change. Thank you sooooo much in advance, and hope to hear from you guys soon.Īll the very best, and I hope you are all keeping in good health at these troubling times is closer to your time zone than my own - when you are again online, take a look? dislike registry changes as well I use this method sparingly. With the Coronavirus outbreak I don't have physical access to their offices, and there is nobody *in* the office now until Monday, so my only option is to work remotely to resolve this issue.ĪNY help that you guys can give me would be most gratefully received. I know from this very helpful post that ShlomiL wrote for PurpleFairy1991 back in 2018 (h30434.that he was able to resolve the issue back then, but I was wondering whether that same technique would work this time around (as it involves a Registry key I'm not happy just going with it until I've consulted the pros - you guys =0)) or whether there's anything else I can do to try and get these machines back up and running ? It says that the printer driver is not yet installed, but when I go through the wizard to (re)install it, it says it has worked, but the printers do not show on the list of available printers, only their *fax* equivalents appear (which is really weird). I have uninstalled the printers and re-installed them and I have uninstalled and re-installed the corresponding HP App and followed it through.
I have remoted-into their network and can see that both printers have a "Driver is unavailable" value appearing underneath them.
