    Windows 10 update 2004 won't work with Brother MFC-7840W scanner.


    Greetings. Since my computer upgraded to Windows 10 update 2004 build 19041, I get an error using the scanner on my Brother MFC-7840W. Some incompatibility between the OS and the driver has been introduced. Has anyone else run into similar problems? It was working fine with build 18363. Many thanks! Sean

    :)

    Brother driver update for Brother MFC-7840W

    Windows Update (Windows 10) keeps installing this "update" repeatedly:

    Brother driver update for Brother MFC-7840W

    Usually it succeeds, but other times it fails and I get a notice in my Action Center. It's been doing this as far back as the Update History goes, 8/22/15.

    The Brother web site does not indicate any driver updates for this model since 2010.

    Any ideas?
