HP Officejet Pro 8610
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I uninstalled the drivers and everything related to the printer (as it was on a loan PC) and now I get this error message when I startup the computer. 

There was a problem starting C:\Program Files\HP\HP Officejet Pro 8610\bin\HPStatusBL.dll

 

I've tried to follow the instructions in similar threads but there is nothing related to the printer in the startup list and I can't get into the msconfig.exe file. How do I get rid of this error message as I don't want to return the PC in this state.

Hi,
From File Explorer type %appdata%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup into the address bar and press Enter.
Delete the Monitor Ink Alerts shortcut of the Non-Existing printer and the error should no longer appear.
