You can press Ctrl/F and select only "Keys" in the regedit Find menu to
find the entries I meant you to look through. But unless there's one
that specifically mentions HP Updates, it's best to leave the entries
alone.. even though you could back up the registry, then delete any
candidate you found..
It's probably best you look for support at the HP site. Or maybe
reinstall the scanner software. The idea is to get the software to
install properly and recognize when it's updated.
