Just an update. To get it working you can download drivers for windows 8.1 64bit, open exe with 7zip, extract folder Driver. Connect scanner, go to device manager, if you see exclamation mark next to CanoScan just right click > update driver > manually select location > install. It should all work :)

Hello,

Thanks for the comment! I recently tested the scanner with a fresh install of 21H1 and found that Windows no longer automatically installed a driver. However, running Windows Update and then looking in Optional Updates listed the driver and installed perfectly fine. It isn't as convenient as "plug and play" as it used to be, but easier than your method (although I've used this method before for other hardware :) )

Thanks again for taking the time to comment.

Regards;
