asked on HP ENVY 7645 printer
Running on Windows 7
The printer works fine until I have to print in a diff program, Example I'm printing in Word and then I go to Excel or maybe on-line I cannot print I have to restart the printer. In Event Viewer I do see:
Activation context generation failed for "C:\Program Files\HP\HP ENVY 7640 series\DriverStore\Yeti\V3
Any suggestions?

Good Evening,
The error seems to be related to corrupt installation of the HP Software. I would encourage that you reinstall/uninstall and then reinstall the HP Software for this printer. Once you have done this, your printer shall work fine across all softwares.
Thank you and have a nice evening,

Scan your system with Malwarebytes or a decent Antivirus, it sounds like your PC is Infected.
when finished, reinstall Printer driver if needed.
