Windows 10: Driver installed in XP via administrator, can not be removed via W10 administrator

JJRCorn · Jun 18, 2020

HP Office Jet 6700 Drivers V 28.0.1315.0 installed in XP via administrator, can not be removed via W10 administrator. Get an error message that account is not an administrator account see image. HP Community and Support have been helpful but unsuccessful in uninstalling the old drives so I can install updated device drivers.

Any idea on how I go about removing this driver. Setting, App, Program & Features try to delete but with no luck. Can not find a recognizable register entry to remove that way.

Boot into Windows as administrator

I try this on XP & it always says my passwords wrong
Click to expand...

You set up the admin password when installing XP, but most the time people believe it is for their individual account and not the Administrator one. As for Vista, like stated before, the initial account created is an administrator account, and if necessary, you may need to right click certain programs to "Run as Administrator"
