Windows 10: 1803 & activation, 1809 & HP printers

Greetings
two questions:
1) is the problem of ver.1803 later build and demand for activation solved? (besides moving on to 1809)
2) is the problem of ver.1809 and HP printers solved?
1809 solves the activation problem but HP printers stops working (my suspicion is that they are kicked of home network)
thank you

:)

 

hp printer stops working after updating to 1809


HP forum suggest rolling back to 1803
but in 1803 I received a sudden demand to activate and activation servers were unreachable
there should be an 1809b or 1810 version solving both problems (activation and HP printer)
the question is do I roll back to 1803 and wait for future update or continue from 1809?
thank you

Hi zivshosh and others -

I also had a horrible experience with my HP OfficeJet Pro 8610 and the 1809 update before it was pulled.

Some things...

1) Do not attempt a System Restore or rolling back to 1803. It will have no effect.
2) If you imaged your system before the 1809 update, you might wish to cleanly restore that image. Then defer feature updates for 60 days.

I also have other systems on 1809 with the same HP Software Suite running without a problem.
One suggestion is to post your concerns on HP's printer forum.

HP is terrible about checking and updating their drivers but it just might be a 1809 upgrade glitch.
One thing that you can try is to cleanly uninstall all HP printer drivers and then reinstall under 1809.

FWIW *Zip
