Talk:Windows Fax and Scan

If Windows Fax and Scan is freeware, where can one possibly download it for free?

Unfortunately, persons purchasing Vista Home "Premium" will not have this wonderfully touted Windows fax and scan, as this item is only available in the ultimate or more substantial "packages" of the Vista line. If the inexpensive machine was purchased at a "big Box Store" it is likely you have the home premium version (surprise) and have to upgrade your version.

Kindly, Microsoft has given you a convienient way of "upgrading" directly in your control panel (for a price).

Perhaps you can get a "free" version off an old Modem driver disk, or lexmark (for example) scanner / printer like I did. You just have to dig a little. Twocows.com or downloads.com will gladly sell you something if you choose to buy it.

Fax modems are practically free, so take away the software.
I miss XP so bad, I need to send a fax and the new PC has the fax modem but alas, too basic a windows vista that it does not know how to use it. I could under windows 3.1-XP, so I guess it's off to tucows to get a basic tool. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Special:Contributions/ (talk)

Comment moved from article
I find it difficult to close the application in a way that prevents it from repeatedly popping up on my desktop. If anyone has a way to do this please put it somewhere on this page. 98.110.223.82 (talk) 13:10, 18 October 2011

Requirement of Analog Telephone Line
There is no mention in the article of a phone line being required. It is important to add this, as many users are attempting to learn about pre-installed software that allows them to create a fax-over-internet experience.

This article is useless. It does not explain anything. ---Dagme (talk) 16:47, 25 June 2021 (UTC)
