Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Upgraded from Windows 7 Pro 64bit to Windows 10 64bit.  Now the scanner program won't show text menus... the dropdowns show text...the scan shortcuts work but don't display the text as to what they do.  I have uninstalled the HP Software and downloaded the latest version for Windows 10 but it still has the same issue.  I even dumped HP folders from the AppData folder in hopes and the ProgramData folder to no avail.  Hoping someone can assist me further.  Thank you.

Hi,

First, ensure the HP Scan application is closed

On your computer browse to C:\HP_Color_LaserJet_Pro_MFP_M477\Setup\Product\Scan_App\Fonts

Click CTRL+A to select all font files

Right-click the files and select Install

 

Now open HP Scan and check for any difference, if the same persists restart your computer and open HP Scan again.

 

Please let me know if that helps,

Shlomi
