How do I scan multiple pages as a PDF file in Windows 11?

Since updating to Windows 11, the only way I seem to be able to get my scanner to work is using Windows Scan. Unfortunately, I can't see any way to scan multiple pages into the PDF I am trying to create. I used to be able to do this using my scanner's functions but since updating to Windows 11, the scanner can't seem to connect to my PC via the scanner's buttons. Does anyone know a way around this?

    I might be a little late to the party with this, but, if you are using a printer/scanner combo, and it has the option of a feeder at the top, you can choose "feeder" under "source" in the Windows Scan app, and then make sure to select PDF as output. This automatically will scan all documents you loaded into the feeder.

    Unfortunately, not sure about just a scanner, probably what everyone else said, try to find an app or program from the manufacturer.
