I have a WIA2 driver with Error Handler Extension. Error handler Extension dll displays error pop up on some condition during WIA scan. Error pop up displays properly when scanned from Windows Fax and Scan Application, but from Windows Scan App pop up from WIA Error handler is not displayed.

Is Error Handler Extension of WIA not supported by Windows Scan App ?

    Hi,

    Thanks for posting on our forum!

    Firstly, how did your WIA Error handler fail to display with Windows scan app? Was there any error messages poping up when you configure them together?

    Based on your description, I think your issue tends to be a hardware related issue which is beyond our forum's scope. I strongly suggest you to directly contact your vendor, they should know the requirements for installing Error Handler Extension with WIA drive. Besides, I am going to check with my colleagues who work for Windows products like Windows scan app, to see if there is any limitation with Error Handler Extension of WIA drive.

    Thanks for your support! Besides, would you please help me Accept Answer. An accepted blog can be put on top of our forum, so that people who have a similar issue can get access to their solution more quickly. I would really appreciate it if you could support my work.
