asked on Windows 10 V1709 - Oops! they did it again....
Microsoft is on a roll. Windows 10 has to be approaching the status of "Worst Operating System Ever". Every time they come out with a new version the pain intensifies. It looks like they finally killed of IE 11...
That in itself isn't a big deal but the software for all OfficeJet Pro 8600 printers is now crashing and won't install. I have a lot of them on a network. It will scan the network properly but when I select one to install it crashes with an "unknown" error.
I have tried "Run As Administrator" and even tried it logged in as administrator. I have tried it on several 1709 computers and it crashes on all. Any ideas? (short of reverting back to 1703)...

@McKnife the Fall Creator Update hasn't been out a month yet and look at the posts on it. Then looks at the posts on 1703, 1607 and the original 1511. I too have been introducing new OSs since DOS 2.11 and this is NOT one of Microsoft's better. What has been worse? Millennium and Vista? You are really happy with 10? I guess it is all relative :)

I am going to have to eat a little crow on this one. The problem turned out to be Webroot having issues with 1709. When I disabled Webroot everything ran fine.
Web root conflicts with Windows 10. I don't think you told us about this
ASKER
It conflicts with 1709 only. Anything prior is fine. They finally have a fix. At this point is manual but soon to be auto.
Yes . We are seeing problems with Anti Virus vendors not keeping up with Microsoft. We are not far away from the next big update. The antivirus vendors have become a pain in the butt. Please, in no way was I being critical of you. I would not do that
My 8600 works fine on 1709 too but that was not the question. The problem was installing the 8600 software on these fresh installs of 1709. Have you tried that?
