  You can type fax and scanning in the start search box and the option should appear in the upper part of the menu, or you can check if these steps also.

  1. Click Start > Control Panel
  2. Click turn on or off windows features

  If the scan and fax option is enabled, try to uncheck the option, and then click ok

  Restart your computer and check.

• Windows Fax and Scan does not appear in the start menu

  : I'm using Windows Vista Home Premium and you want to (a) send faxes via a modem local fax and b scan docs from a local scanner. I mean, there should be a program Windows fax and scan shown in the start menu. I clicked all programs on the start menu, and it doesn't always show. Suggestions?

  From: Hal

  Fax and scan is available in Windows Vista Business and Ultimate editions, it is not available in any of the Windows Vista Home editions.  Since you have a version of Windows Vista Edition family, the only option of fax is a third-party product.  These products work under Windows Vista:

  Snappy Fax

  VentaFax

  I have seen reports that the free version of BVRP also works with Windows Vista:

  Given the above comes with the new USR modem, I don't know if it will work with no - USR modems.  Alternatively, you can send faxes via your Internet connection provided you are willing to pay for an Internet E - Fax service:

• Unable to set up account, get error in Windows Fax and Scan

  I have Windows 7 Home Premium installed, update of Vista home Premium. I've never used the Windows Fax and Scan until today. When I went to set up a Fax account this error in popup:

  An error has occurred. Try the operation again later or contact your administrator.

  I am the only user & administrator of this PC.

  I saw a post on the forum Vista, I tried but still have not been able to solve this problem. Help, please.

  Hello

  I tried the suggested method of deletion of registry keys, but it doesn't work on my laptop Win 7 Prof 32 bit with the built-in fax modem.

  The fax service works only when I connect the the domain administrator account, even if I put my user account in domain with administrator rights. Before my network has been migrated to Win 2003 Server Win 2008 Server, the fax service worked very well for my domain user account, then the problem could be due to a setting in group policy by default under Win 2008 Server?

  Looking forward to responses. Thank you.

  Managed to solve today after I do a right-click on WFS, go into properties, Security tab, button "Advanced", then "Change permissions" for my special user for total control account. Open WFS again and click new fax to set up a new Fax account and all went well.

• When usng Windows Fax and Scan, how can I scan a document of several pages to a single file or folder?

  I'm trying to analyze a statement of income, and when I scan a page, I don't seem to be able to the scanner in a single folder. Each page shows up as a separate item?

  I tried to download the HP software but it was rejected because the Windows Fax and Scan was already installed on my new PC.

  This seems rather odd.  Can you give us the complete error message without paraphrase?

  You should not delete Windows Fax and Scan in order to install the manufacturer's software.

  What version of Windows is installed?  32-bit or 64-bit?

  Assuming you have Windows 7, is it upgraded to Vista or come pre-installed with Windows 7 computer?

• Windows Fax and Scan/Event Viewer

  I have 2 issues that I believe are interdependent.

  I am running W7 x 64 edition family and until recently and scanning worked perfectly but suddenly stopped. Now the application does not show my internal Modem (soft) or my external Fax Modem - that are displayed in the device (with no problems) Manager. The App said No accounts set up, and when I try to accounts 'Add', nor the modem show and if I try to ' add by using a name, I just get a statement of error message "the mentioned fax server is not available"... telling me to try again later."

  When I first set up fax and scan, I just plugged my Modem Fax (new) and when I went to add accounts - the two Modems showed. I simply took the external Modem and everything worked fine - now none of the Modems are recognized.

  I tried the remedy of re-fax service under control panel of configuration/administration/services etc... is indifferent.

  I looked at a lot of positions since 2007 and this seems to be the problem well documented and a pending problem resulting from an update of Windows, but it is unclear which.

  Of all the posts I've seen, it's a well known error / well documented that has not already been corrected.

  At the same time, my event viewer does not work - when I try to open it, a message simply says "Service not available event log. Verify that the service is running.

  I try to run the service and "starts and stops"... In any case, among the thousands of posts on this topic and also I tried remedies including remove/rename the Windows/system32/LogFiles/WMi/RtBackup

  I think remember me one saying the 2 problems are interrelated. Any ideas?

  Hi Gerry,

  No, I have already gone through Device Manager and no device No. Bad shown.

  Yes, I used fax and scan before several times on my x 64 system and it worked fine until recently.

  HOWEVER, "good news".

  I found a site called http://tools.sysprogs.org/srvman/ SYS PROGS

  The site has a small standalone application called srvman that I downloaded and it allowed me to launch the event log / event viewer / Fax - which none could start the Services on the right menu by clicking on the selection and selection automatic (or manual) and then start. Each of them would start and then stop.

  In any case, they began with this app and then Windows Fax and Scan App and still no joy.

  I then went to "Turn Windows features on or off" and of selected Fax and Scan and printer Opps, then re-selected them (I had tried this method a few times before without success)...

  Restarted the computer and the events/event log viewer / fax and scan works very well... (only thing was Fax and Scan doesn't seem to see my external Fax Modem (soft) modem internal but recognized and 'Fax account' remained together upwards, so all good to go.)

  Thanks for your help... your directions encouraged me to keep plodding on this issue frustrating and eventually got somewhere - but by "Good luck" more than my own 'good management' :-)

• Windows Fax and Scan cannot detect Photosmart C4580 all-in-1 scanner connected to the wireless network

  I have no problem printing or scanning when I connect my C4500 to PC via USB.  When connected via my home wireless router I can print OK but can not scan - it's the same for other users and computers.  Windows Fax and Scan gives me the message 'no scanner found. '  I need to work so that all users on my netwrok home can share the scanner.  I use Windows 7 64-bit.

  Thanks Travis_C (HP).  I actually found the solution just before receiving your answer!  I discovered that, although the Solution Center says it would uninstall the existing files before allowing me to reinstall with the latest version downloaded, it didn't remove all the files.  I only discovered this because the new facility has not taken me through the whole fresh installation procedure, he simply asked me what additional features I wanted to install and asked me if I wanted a local printer or network etc.

  I thought that there must be a mistake or problem with whatever existing files were left and the new facility would not correct it.  So I used the control panel to uninstall the existing files, and I made sure that everything was gone.  I then used the last download to reinstall, this time through the new correct installation procedure, and everything now works perfectly.

  With this method I always had a problem on another PC, giving me the same problem I had before.  I realized that this was due to a USB dongle connected to the PC to a wireless keyboard that seems to affect the installation.  When I removed the dongle installation worked again perfectly, and I now have full printing and scanning ability on all PCs.

  I think the installer for this printer wireless (and perhaps others?) should be updated to solve the problem, and also the center of Solution must be fixed to ensure that if you uninstall the software it should not leave anything.

• Windows Fax and Scan "Sender Name" empty (Windows Server 2008 Standard)

  Hi all

  I am using Windows Server 2008 Standard (32-bit) with a RocketModem III card.  I have the latest drivers for the RocketModem.

  Using Windows Fax and Scan, I can send and receive faxes fine.  The only problem is when I see the fax, the name of the sender is blank.  I am trying to display the telephone number that someone sends me the fax to.

  I had thought it might also be under CSID, but everything I have complete options because it puts there.  I guess that means I want the CSID show for all those who sent faxes to me.

  It might be worth noting that I have active CallerID and you have a real fax machine that shows the incoming number very well.

  Does anyone have an idea where I could go wrong here?  Thanks in advance for the help!
