Driver Problem C309 and Windows 10 Creator Update

I recently installed the Windows 10 update, called Creators Update. After this update, the printer has stopped working. Windows indicates that there is a problem with the driver. I uninstalled and reinstalled the driver downloaded here from the HP website, but the problem persists. The strange thing is that as the printer is connected via Wi-Fi, it appears in network locations, but any operation that requires the use of HP software gives a problem, because when entering it, it gives a message saying that the printer is not installed .
I believe this problem is happening in other HP printer models.
Does anyone have any solutions or tips?

Thank you for joining HP Forums.
I'll be glad to help you 🙂
As I understand the HP Software isn't working after the recent upgrade to the windows 10 creators update.
No worries, as I'll be glad to help you, that said, I'll need a few more details to dissect your concern & provide an accurate solution:
Which HP software are you referring to?
Did you check with alternate applications such as HP Scan & Capture to check if that works?
Have you removed & reinstalled the printer drivers?
While you respond to that, here's a few things you need to do:
I recommend you delete the driver at root level and retry, follow the steps below:
In Windows, search for and open Programs and features
2.) Select your HP Printer
3.) Select Uninstall
4.) In Windows, search for and open Devices and printers
5.) In the Devices and Printers windows look for your HP printer. If you see it listed right-click on it and choose `Delete' or `Remove Device'
6.) Open up the run command with the "Windows key + R" key combo.
7.) Type printui.exe /s and click Ok. (Note: there is a space in between "printui.exe" and "/s")
8.) Click on the "Drivers" tab
9.) Look for HP Printer driver. If you see it Click on it and click Remove at the bottom
10.) Select Ok
11.) Select Apply and Ok on the Print Server Properties windows
12.) Close Devices and Printers
Then install the full feature software (latest version) available on the Official HP website: Click here to find it.
Keep me posted,

Thank you for replying with this overwhelming and detailed response,
I appreciate your time and efforts,
In that case, I recommend you rollback to the previous build of windows after changing automatic updates to manual,
And/or wait for Microsoft to get back to you with an update on this compatibility issue, as you can raise a feedback to help fix the issue via a patch file:
To remove the creator's update or go back to the previous build, follow the below steps:
To uninstall Windows 10 Creators Update you will have to open the Start Menu. Next, click on the Settings link.
Having opened the Settings panel, click on Update & Security, here select Recovery settings.
Next click on the Get started button under Go back to an earlier build section.
The process will start and you will be asked some questions for information purposes, as to why you are going back to the previous build of Windows 10.
The options are:
- My apps or devices don’t work on this build
- Earlier builds seemed easier to use
- Earlier builds seemed faster
- Earlier builds seemed more reliable
- For another reason – Tell them more.

With the built-in windows driver for the printer, I can´t use the scan function. I tried to use the Scan program from HP and the Scan program from Microsoft.
