Windows 10: HP738035 no longer recognised by network since Windows 10 update 2004

Since the 2004 update, Windows will not install my HP Officejet 6700 Premium all in one printer. I have also downloaded the latest recommended software and drivers from HP, which also will not recognise it. That goes around in circles prompting me for info which is already there.

The printer shows up on my router with an IP address and mac address, both of which match whats on the printer. Have used these to try and pair manually, but still will not accept.

Have tried multiple times, restarting printer, rebooting Windows, but still, neither will fine the printer. Have already turned off firewall on anti virus and Windows and done much searching on the internet. Cannot run Windows troubleshooter as it just runs and runs, stop it and then it will not run at all!

If anyone does have any suggestions, I would welcome them.

My TV no longer recognises my PC

Since moving to Windows 10, my Samsung TV doesn't recognise my PC. When I bought the TV it recognised my PC, then on Windows 7, immediately as one of the available sources, along with USB, HDMI etc. Now that I have changed to Windows 10, however, the TV
can't see the PC as an input, though everything else, including wifi network and internet access, works as before. I've looked in the devices list in Windows 10 settings, and the TV is listed as available.
Any suggestions, please?

 

PCs no longer visible on Network after auto Windows Updates 10 Pro

I have 8 computers on a Network running MS Windows 10 Pro and all of them access a shared folder on a server computer. Now, 2 of the computers are no longer visible on the network after MS updated the computers during the night. The Windows Updates were:
Update for Windows 10 V1607 KB3211320
Update for Adobe Flash Windows V10 1607
Feature Update for Windows 10 v1607

For example, using Windows File Explorer, I would click on "Network" and it would list all of the computers on our network. At that point I would click on the "Server" computer and a list of the folders that I have access to would be displayed. Now, the Server computer is no longer visible on the network using Windows File Explorer. I am confident that the culprit is Windows automatic update because this happened once before on another machine and the problem was resolved after I removed the MS updates.

Does can anyone suggest a solution to my problem which doesn't involve removing the updates? I am reluctant to remove the updates again because I know it is important to remain current and I am worried a subsequent update will cause a repeat of the problem. Any advice is greatly appreciated!
