Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I just reinstalled Win10 on my PC as well as the driver for my SCX3205W imp/scanner. The printer is OK, but I can't install Smarthru 4 to make the scanner work. Can you help me ? Then, when I ask for help, the HP site tells me that the serial number of my printer (15 digits) is not valid?

Hi,

The Smarthru software is not compatible with Windows 10,. please download and install EDC application to scan from a Windows 10 PC:

Thank you for the quick reply. EDC works well and I can scan my documents but I was used to using Smarthru 4 for
 a long time and would have preferred to continue.

However, I no longer have access to the OCR function despite having installed WIN_OCR_V1.01.23. 
How can I access this function?
