my HP smart app stopped working after I closed it. I tried to reinstall the app but I get an error Code: 0x803F8003. My printer uses a wireless connection and the network configuration page says there are no problems. I have rebooted my laptop (twice) as suggested and still it won't install. This happened yesterday too but eventually it allowed me to install it. It worked until I closed it out. I believe the error code when it stopped working was just something like you can't access it now check with the store. Of course the store said I had it installed and that is when I uninstalled and tried to reinstall. The printer software that came with the printer works fine but I have a lot of scanning to do and the All in one remote App works better.
Please advise. Thank you,
Jennifer Muhlbauer

I was trying to install on my Lenovo Yoga 3. It did automatically install at some point. I am afraid to close out the app though because this has happened 2 days in a row. Once I close it then it no longer works and it doesn't want to install again. Both times it just randomly installed when I wasn't looking!

First off i was unable to install on my Lenovo Yaga PC which was in the thread somewhere. This has been a very frustrating and dissapointing experience as far as customer service goes. It is currently installed as I also mentioned before. I don't know why it finally worked but I am not closing out the program unti I finish my project.
