Assistant scanner and camera for Windows 7

Separated from this thread.

You did answer the question.  The question is: where in windows7 can we find the friendly and useful feature that was available in the "Microsoft of Wizard scanners and cameras" program of Windows XP?  This Windows XP program is a user-friendly program to selectively import groups of photos and scans.  Instead of answering the question, we refer you to a device driver installation wizard, and this response is irrelevant, incompetent, hostile and evil!

Hello

As you have seen that it works differently in Windows 7. You must configure it by using the component of AutoPlay .

1. Open Control Panel. In the Search box, type AutoPlay. In the results click on Autorun.

2. in AutoPlay, in the photos section, click the drop-down menu and select import pictures and videos using Windows. Click the Save button.

The next time that you connect and turn on the camera, you will see a pop-up dialog box. Follow the instructions in this dialog box.

If you have installed Windows Photo Gallery, you will also see an option to use this program to import and edit photos.

You can download/install the Gallery of photos for free at the following link. It belongs to the Windows Essentials range.

  • HP scanner and Capture for Windows 8

    I have a HP6600.  HP scanning and application of the Capture for Windows 8.1 stop when I switch to another application - if I start a scan and then move to another application leaving work in the background, the analysis always fail (message says that the application has been suspended).  The scan is successful when I keep the app on the screen, preventing me from multitasking.  If I move to a different application, scanning and Capture stops working in the background.  This can be corrected?

    Hello.

    It's true, because it cannot communicate with its address space on your computer. You expect the task of analysis at the end. They can do so on the high end printers/scanners multitasking, but NOT for low range printers/scanners.

    Hope it makes sense.

    I'm not sure if you are saying that the wizard will not start

    If you connect your camera via USB, turn it on and and
    Reach... Start / run... type the following and press on... Come in...
    To start the wizard:

  • Launch Windows scanner and Camera Wizard

    How can I manually start the scanner and Camera Wizard?  It runs automatically when I plug in my camera, but if I want to copy photos in different directories, I must perform these tasks as a group.  As soon as I made a group, the wizard stops and the only way I know to restart is to unplug, then reconnect the device.  Someone knows a way to start the Wizard manually?

    Thank you

    Reach... Start / my computer...

  • I connect my Canon camera, wiaacngr.exe opens a window asking me to select the program to start. But it offers only two options: M/S Office Word and scanner and camera wizard.

    original title:wiaacmgr.exe

    I found a lot on the Internet about wiaacngr.exe not opening not or refuses to recognize the camera.  My problem is almost the opposite!   Whenever I connect my Canon camera, by USB, my current laptop (Windows XP Pro SP3 of v5), wiaacngr.exe opens a window asking me to select the program to start.  But it offers only two options: M/S Office Word and scanner and camera assistant, neither of which I want to use.  If I close the window...  Not much, but it's a nuisance.  I would be happy if she has proposed to launch work stations.  I then click on the box "Make this every time" and will never see the window.  Otherwise, I'd be happy to remove the program completely.  Can someone tell me how to achieve one of these?  S ' Please!

    I placed my Kodak digital camera memory card into the slot on my computer, and the only answer is that it runs on my printer scanner.  How can I transfer my photos from my camera to my computer?

    ================================================
    Perhaps, you can manually start the scanner and Camera Wizard:

    With your camera or scanner connected and open
    on... try to go on... Start / run... and type or copy / paste
    What follows:

    wiaacmgr.exe

    Now press on... Come in. This should launch the Scanner
    and the camera Assistant.

    The following Wizard can also be worth a try:

    Also, you could manually download photos:

    Something to try...

    Connect the device to your PC via a USB cable and turn
    on the camera... If open windows... Close them.

    According to... to... Start / my computer... the camera can be
    listed as a drive letter...

    If_yes_right click on the drive letter and select... Explorer or
    Open... This should display the directory of the memory card.
    You can copy and paste or drag and drop the files from there to a
    folder on your hard drive.

    (The same steps work if you have a media player...
    When you go to... Start / desktop media slots...
    Drive should be listed under... "Removable disk" with a drive
    letter.)

  • is - it version XP from Microsoft scanner and Camera Wizard work on Win 7?

    original title: the version XP from Microsoft scanner and Camera Wizard work on Win 7?  It is much more useful to manage his photos.  The version of Win 7 does not even recognize the camera.

    I don't know what else to say.  I have an old XP machine, so I used that.  Child's play for what I wanted to do.

    Thank you for volunteering J, for this quick reply.

    My question gets pictures from a camera to a PC, my problem is that the XP version is very useful, and the version of Win 7 is not.

    Where the question: can I use the XP version on Windows 7?

    =====================================
    You are welcome.

    Sorry for this misunderstanding.

    You have said that your camera is not recognized then
    I assumed that you were unable to download your photos...

    Anyway... as far as I know... the XP Scanner and camera
    Wizard cannot be used on Windows 7.

    The info can be useful to experiment.

    Windows XP scanner and Camera Wizard is:

    wiaacmgr.exe

    On a Windows XP system, the path to the file is:

    C:\Windows\System32\wiaacmgr.exe

    There is also a copy of the file located in the:

    C:\WINDOWS\system32\dllcache\wiaacmgr.exe

    I wonder what would happen (if there is one) if the
    wiaacmgr.exe file has been copied from the XP system
    and transferred to the Win 7 system?

    If you decide to experiment with the wiaacmgr.exe file...

    Proceed at your own risk *.

    On a XP system if a scanner or camera is connected
    and turned on... you can left-click the wiaacmgr.exe
    file (even if it is copied on the desktop) and it allows to detect
    the device.

    Will it work if copied on the Windows 7 Desktop? I have no idea...

  • the scanner and Camera Wizard box is empty

    The wizard opens when I put my SD card reader into the USB slot, but there is no choice in the selection of the action box. How can I fix it?

    Hello oldmellow,

    1. are you referring to the AutoPlay dialog box that appears when you plug in the USB key?

    2. have you checked if the card reader is detected in Windows Explorer?

    3 was this work very well at all times before?

    If the SD card is not detected automatically, you should check if it appears in Windows Explorer.

    Open my computer and check if the scanner and camera appears here.

    a. to open the scanners and cameras, click Start, click Control Panel, click Printers and other devices and then click Scanners and cameras.

    If your camera or scanner is not listed in the scanner and Camera Installation Wizard, try to install it using Device Manager. Check if the device is detected in Device Manager. You can see the bottom of the article for more information on this:
