My epson perfection v700 scanner (that allows me to scan photos, negatives, documents, etc.) and that I paid over $800 for) stopped working with teh latest update two days ago. I've downloaded a new driver and other software from Epson and it doesn't work. Can I uninstall this update? I like my scanner a whole lot more than I like Windows.

    You are lucky, no such update for my WF-7610 still on 5.2.3.3 from Jan 2018.

    Do you have a question?

    I thought Eprosn Web Print had caused my problem, but it reappeared after a few days even without Web Print installed.

    Trying another theory, I found the Epson dialog had gotten stuck "off-screen".

    Same symptoms as before. I got the dialog back by carefully selecting it with Alt-Tab and then Alt-M (hopefully = Move) and then arrow keys in various directions. 

    It has been mostly fine after that. Once the symptoms re-appeared, but that time it was lack of response from the printer which was fixed by re-starting it.

    My problem was solved. The "Run as Administrator" fix worked for three weeks. However now my three year old Epson WF 3640 stopped working altogether, error code 0x97.   This is apparently a motherboard issue.  It is now in the recycle cart at Staples and I have a Brother device.

    The problem disappeared after the Windows update yesterday....

    No more freezes. I had 3 scan today, 2 colour and 1 black and white.
