daveybrat thanks,
I am going to test this out to see if you have the best answer.
so far, your chances look VERY promising
it is a device, not a program name, though there was a utility disk. the cannon program?
QUESTIONS
1) the program name might be "Cannon IJ Network Scanner Selector EX"?
2) would the .EXE be the name of the program?
3)
if it is a device that you are attaching to a computer, what is the program name?
4) is there any way to eliminate cortonna and all that is destroying the Earth so that the Earth has a chance to heal, giving power back to the people, or for me to have my "system" back as it used to function,
such as doing redistribution of the wealth of everyone over 17 million dollars, for the good of We The People, the United States of America, where We The People in other
nations is the commonfolk, just like you and me, so that my computer "system" can revert back to way it was with the previous windows when windows USED TO BE
"user friendly", which was the whole reason why computers were even made in the first place?
SIDE NOTE
1) "Cannon IJ Network Scanner Selector EX" appear on my computer, and yet cortonna says that "BEST RESULT: no results found for Cannon IJ Network Scanner Selector EX"

2) i did what you said: "Enter the name of the program in the search box on the taskbar, press and hold (or right-click) the search result, and then select Open file location."
and i did not see any option to "open file location". when you say "press and hold", you mean press the enter key and hold it?
3) i am not fond of coronna, as it searches on the internet without my consent or without the consent of We The People to have of World War 3, arbitrarily doing what it wants
to do. one minute i am searching for something on my computer and then, the next thing i know cortonna is taking me all across the world.
4) however, i manually found the file (by another method) and ran the exe, however, there appears to be issues now:
"printer is in use or an error has occurred. check status. scanner driver will now be closed. code: 2,140,21"
my scanner had absolutly no issues BEFORE windows 10, so windows 10 has completely destroyed my scanner!!!
thanks windows 10 for being so "USER FRIENDLY".
i know about the compatibility mode, but yes, this is a good idea. just because, i will try this anyways.
UPDATE: nope, same error message. set to compatibility of windows 7 when it worked just fine.
so these are the choices that i have
1) try recommended settings
2) troubleshoot program
it says "windows compatibility mode: windows 8"
oh wow, i didn't know there was a "troubleshooting option" in the compatibility section! that's nice to know!!!!!
OUTCOME: unsuccessful. still recieving an error
