Windows 10: paperport 14 with windows 10

I found the problem!
In the registry there is an option that cause the crash:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ScanSoft\PaperPort\PaperPort User Preferences
look for BrowserSelected
my registry had "Mozilla Firefox"
I changed it "none"
PAPERPORT 14.5 STARTED WITH NO PROBLEMS
NOTE: if it contains "Mozilla Firefox" it will not start.
Also please note that this problem started with PaperPort 14.0 which was working with Windows 10 64bit with no problems.
I upgraded to 14.5 w/patch 1 thinking it would correct the problem. Being 14.5 w/patch 1 is Windows 10-compliant, with the upgrade.


JUST THOUGHT SHARE

Windows 10 PaperPort

According to Nuance, only Nuance PaperPort 14.5 with Patch 1 is supported under Windows 10. If you haven't installed it, you could do so to see if it starts working again. The solution is to download the Patch 1 installer from this direct link: http://supportcontent.nuance.com/paperport/14/14_5/Patch1/Patch1__PP14UPRO_13223__v3.exe
After downloading it, close PaperPort and run it. If you have't installed 14.5 yet, you can download it from the following links: here are direct download links: Professional http://supportcontent.nuance.com/paperport/14/14_5/Patch1/Patch1__PP14UPRO_13264__v4.exe

Paperport 14 compatibility with Creators update

Last week I went to work on a Windows 10 machine that had paperport 14.5 installed. Paperport had been working fine but now it would report back a few seconds after starting that the program had stopped working. After several hours of spinning my wheels
I noticed that two things were changed on this systems since a windows update had taken place. The windows 10 theme was changed and the default font size had been changed to 120%. I changed the themes and the font size back to the default setting and reboot.
Paperport is now working again. There is nothing on paperport support site that would suggest that you should look at these two issues has to something that would be causing the problem. Worked for me....good luck.

 

Windows 10 update causes a problem with Paperport 14, a program that worked perfectly before the last update.

The latest Windows 10 update rendered Paperport 14 unusable. Paperport can no longer find the Epson Perfection V500 Photo scanner profile. I can operate the scanner through the Control Panel screen so I know it's functional but I want to continue to
use Paperport 14 which worked perfectly up until the Windows update.
