It may still be there somewhere

 

Enter HP Scan in to the windows search and if it shows up then "open file location" and then "send it to the desktop" will create a shortcut.  I have so much stuff on my two monitors I usually type in what I want to run instead of looking for it.  My iPhone is worse.

Alternately use HP Smart

Unaccountably, HP Smart's "scan" function does not recognized my HP CM1415 printer so I have to use HP Scan

 

If it is missing from the computer then locate your printer drivers and download the scan tool
