![]() ![]() Windows now uses WIA for "acquisition" type stuff - i.e getting image from scanner etc.Īlternatively there's a piece of Paid software that still keeps these old scanners running -haven't used it for agaes but it was very good from what I remember TWAIN is now "deprecated" in W10 - if you still need TWAIN you'll have to either install W7 / XP / VISTA Virtual machine and run your scanner from there. I can delete the driver, reboot and the driver is back so I guess that's true.Īny suggestions about kick starting TWAIN would be appreciated. Cannon says the scanner doesn't need a driver, its included in Win 10. The scanner works fine on my 4-year old Dell XPS8100 running Windows 10 and the exact level of update. I checked scanner operation each day since the previous "fix" and it worked well for 3 days, now it doesn't. The most recent restore point even has the same Win 10 update status so the problem doesn't seem to be an update. ![]() What does "fix" it is System Restore (one of Windows great features). However I still get the same error message and the associated "Toolbox" software doesn't recognize the scanner. Suddenly I get "Unable to open TWAIN source Please check connection Then re-start Toolbox" Unplugging and plugging the connection the computer gives the little beeps acknowledging the connection. Its been working well on my new Dell XPS8700 running Windows 10 for over 6 months. CanoScan LiDE60 yes its old but you can still buy them new. ![]()
