HP Envy Photo 7858
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I am trying to install the basic driver pack, as my printer is stuck in offline mode.

The driver install fails with error message 'A file that is required cannot be installed because the cabinet file C:\Users\15204\AppData\Local\Temp\7zS7C03\E7800x64.cab has an invalid digital signature.'

I have deleted all the HP drivers from the desktop, and tried to reinstall the HP drivers for the 7858, but still get the same install error due to the digital signature issue.

Any help?

On investigation, the digital certificate for this file has expired, as it is now past the expiration date.

When I try to renew this digital certificate from HP Smart, it says, 'Can't open printer home or EWS page.'

What can I do to fix this situation, and have a working printer?

Thanks.
