    Why does Windows keep deleting my Epson Scan scanner software...


    I found this was posted last year and locked. This has been going on for over 10 years. It is crazy. It is wrong. But, Microsoft seems to do nothing about it.Why on earth take perfectly working and totally necessary software and just delete it so the user can go through the miserable tedious process of reinstalling it???????????????????????This seems to happen after almost every Windows 'update'

    :)

    Epson Scan Crashes - Epson Perfection V700 Scanner

    I just tried a later suggestion and it worked great for me:
    On my Dell PC, right clicked Epson scan shortcut and selected "Run as administrator" ...
    A tiny pain to remember each time I'm selecting the scanner shortcut, but much less pain than the problems I was experiencing!!!

    And yes this problem didn't begin for me until the latest Windows 10 update ... on all of my PCs (3) and different Epson scanner models (3). Epson's 2013 software probably is due for a refresh, do ya think????

    Epson Scan Crashes - Epson Perfection V700 Scanner

    I have an Epson Perfection V700 Photo scanner and have not had any previous trouble with Windows 10. Recently Epson Scan started to crash. This happens when I click on any window outside the Epson scan interface and then click back into Epson scan. Then a blue circle starts turning forever. I have to close Epson scan using the task manager or by right clicking Epson scan in the taskbar/close and Windows will send an error report.

    1- I have uninstalled the Epson Scan software and reinstalled the latest driver from the Epson Website for Win 10 64 bit.
    2- I have tried to roll back to an earlier graphics card driver.
    I have tried using a different USB cable plugged into a different port.

    So far the problem continues. I suspect the problem could be due to the latest Windows feature update or maybe the Graphics card driver could be to blame.

    Any suggestions on how I can troubleshoot this problem would be appreciated.

    Kind regards
    Chris.
