    I cannot start the Epson Scan Smart Software. I was working fine but now it does not open...


    I cannot start the Epson Scan Smart Software. I was working fine but now it does not open when I click on the icon. I updated the drivers from Epson website; uninstalled and installed the drivers and scan smart software several times; rebooted the computer Dell Laptop but still does not open. I have Windows 11 installed and the scanner is a RR-600W.Attached are error messages I see in the Device Manager.Any help with this issue would be very appreciated.

    I just tried a later suggestion and it worked great for me:
    On my Dell PC, right clicked Epson scan shortcut and selected "Run as administrator" ...
    A tiny pain to remember each time I'm selecting the scanner shortcut, but much less pain than the problems I was experiencing!!!

    EPSON Scan Program appearing in taskbar but not opening.

    Windows 10 on a Surface Book. I have EPSON printer software on my computer that previously worked, specifically the EPSON scan program. When I click on it, the program clearly opens (visible in the taskbar) however I cannot see or interact with the program.
    Any tips or suggestions would be appreciated.

    Epson Scan Crashes - Epson Perfection V700 Scanner

    I have an Epson Perfection V700 Photo scanner and have not had any previous trouble with Windows 10. Recently Epson Scan started to crash. This happens when I click on any window outside the Epson scan interface and then click back into Epson scan. Then a blue circle starts turning forever. I have to close Epson scan using the task manager or by right clicking Epson scan in the taskbar/close and Windows will send an error report.

    1- I have uninstalled the Epson Scan software and reinstalled the latest driver from the Epson Website for Win 10 64 bit.
    2- I have tried to roll back to an earlier graphics card driver.
    I have tried using a different USB cable plugged into a different port.

    So far the problem continues. I suspect the problem could be due to the latest Windows feature update or maybe the Graphics card driver could be to blame.

    Any suggestions on how I can troubleshoot this problem would be appreciated.

    Kind regards
    Chris.
