HP Print and Scan Doctor is an executable programme file that you can find in Windows Drive C under Program Files.
I have deleted it and then reloaded it from the HP site and I still have the same problem. So for me it's not the solution, but it seems to work for some people, so there's no harm in giving that a go.
What amazes me, is that there is no-one from HP prepared contribute to the many threads on this subject,

Thanks ferRX, your solution worked on one laptop, but not on the other. I think the reason is that I cannot delete the old programme file in the second laptop because I get a message the file is open in another programme and must be closed in order to delete it. I did a restart of the device, but the problem is still there. Is it because the PS Doctor is open in the Support Assistant? If it is , I don't see how to close it. All the best, Peter

Hello FeRX, that's great. Your solution works on some PCs. But when I download from official HP sites, it doesn't. Is your soloution a illegal one? Or official? And when will it be official? I am waiting. Please make it
