Product: HP6520 Printer
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (32-bit)

When the printer software is fully downloaded to my PC the popup appears non stop " Windows firewall has blocked some features......"

 

Tried many solutions to no avail.  Only ininstalling the HP software works.

I have eventually stopped the continual popups telling me Windows Defender has blocked "HP Network Communicator".

 

I went into the HP file, Bin, Communicator, and deleted it.  The printer works as required now with no obvious errors.
