Windows 10: Epson Perfection V39II not working after Windows upgrade to version 24H2

Hi,My Nucbox G5 mini PC was running Windows 11 version 23H2, had some glitches, so had a complete reset of my PC. After reset, I upgraded to version 24H2 and connected my USB Epson Perfection V39II Scanner. Unfortunately, after installing the upgrade and the device driver provided by Epson, the EpsonScan 2 application as well as the Epson ScanSmart application is not working. When I start the EpsonScan 2 application, I get the following pop-up messages.es2launcher.exe - System ErrorThe code execution cannot proceed because mfc100u.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this.es2lau

Epson Perfection 1640SU driver for windows 10

 

Find a driver for Epson Perfection 1240U Photo scanner on Windows 10 64 bit

I found a solution here.

(translated the following steps from german. Sorry if it's not exactly translated.)

• Search the Win10 64 bit driver for the Epson Perfection 2400 scanner
  
• I found "Epson Scan 3.0.4 17-Jul-2009 20.68MBs" and installed it. The installer asks for the scanner model. I only selected EPSON Perfection 2400.
  
• Connecting the scanner afterwards needs some manual help: Go to device manager and find the EPSON Perfection 1240. Manually install the driver from the context menu - Update driver... - Browse my computer... - Let me pick from a list...
  
• Select Imaging devices
  
• EPSON Perfection 2400
  
• Done
  

The scanner is shown as EPSON Perfection 2400 instead of EPSON Perfection 1240. But it works.

On the german epson support page there is also an update for the driver "EPSON Scan Updater 1.0 13-Jul-2018 0.72MBs". I also installed this afterwards with success.
Probably the english version "Scanner Driver and EPSON Scan Utility v3.04A" has this update already included.
