  2. Faxing

    Hi Arlene,

    To isolate the issue about sending a fax message directly from your laptop, please provide the following information:

    • What happens when you try to send a fax message from your laptop?
    • Are there any error codes that appear when you send a fax message?
    • Were there any changes made on your computer prior to the issue?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?

    Regards.

  3. Windows10 fax and Scan folders


    Unstumped! Thanks for the push Ken, into sending a new fax. The light eventually dawned on me that the file names of the sent faxes differed over several groups of characters to those of the 'new' sent fax. After a laborious cut and paste operation on all sent faxes I now have a complete record.

    Out of interest, I also found this useful 'help' from M$ for missing 'sent' faxes.

    • Go to the Control Panel and select Programs and features.
    • On the left side select Turn Windows Features on or off.
    • Scroll down to Print and Document services.
    • Select the plus sign to expand.
    • Remove the check from Windows FAX and Scan.
    • Select OK.
    To install repeat the steps and put a check mark, restart the computer.

    Huzzah!

    problems sending fax in windows 10

    Hello,

    • Type Fax in Search.
    • Launch Windows Fax and Scan.
    • Select Fax.
    • Click the Tools menu.
    • Click Fax Accounts.
    • Click Add.
    • In the Fax Setup Wizard, click Connect to a fax server on my network and follow the instructions.


    If the issue persists, try checking and installing any driver update. Here’s an
    article that would walk you through the steps on how to update drivers in Windows
