At this writing, the only download / installation source for the Windows HP Smart application is the Microsoft Store.

 

HP Smart for Windows

HP Smart is an application available in the Microsoft Store

OR

Open the Homepage / Support Website for your printer

Category Software and Drivers > Check/ Get the App

 

>>> Open and Read >>> HP printer setup (HP Smart app)

 

NOTES: 

  • Read FAQ -  including - What are the requirements to set up a printer using the HP Smart app?
  • If using VPN >> Disconnect from Virtual Private Network (VPN) connection before downloading.
  • Turn on Wi-Fi on your computer or mobile device and connect to your network. If the computer is connected to the network with an Ethernet cable, temporarily disconnect the cable and use the Wi-Fi connection during the setup.

  • HP Smart requires that you sign into the application using your HP Account credentials.
  • When working through a browser to access HP Smart, be sure you have Cookies enabled.  If cookies are enabled and you are having trouble, clear Cache and Cookies.   And / Or … Try a different browser – assign that browser as the Default.

  • Where possible, HP Smart benefits (likes) having the Full Feature Software / full driver printer software installed.  For example, full driver provides access to Shortcuts and Printing Preferences.

Fix problems with apps from Microsoft Store

 

Not sure I understand the "they know what's going on" comment -- there are usually those who claim to know stuff the rest of us do not know.

 

I guess you could try asking about trouble with the Store at the Microsoft Community   That said, Asking would a case of "they" will not know what is going on with a particular HP application - there might be help for any store issue(s).

You are welcome.

 

I don't have any magic for the Store.

Store is completely in the control of Microsoft, yes - even fussy apps that won't download / install.

 

Do make sure all your Windows Updates are current and fully installed.

If there is a "pending" update, make sure you Restart the computer after it is installed.

 

I've had luck on occasion with the following:

Restart computer and router

Log into the Windows computer

Open the store  > Open  the "Library"  (lower left corner) > and Check for for updates

 

The store itself is an app -- it might need to be updated.

Looks like the most recent Microsoft Store app update (at this writing) was 23-March-2023
