Already having problem upgrading to Win 8.1 from 8.0 and this isn't helping.  Anyone know what I can do to stop the errors?  (This post also generated an error stating that invalid HTML was detected and removed and it was a direct copy from the Microsoft error log.)

Answer 1

So what you're telling me is that it's a WINDOWS FILE that the HP Service is looking for?  When it's an HP Service that will not start, and not a windows service that won't start?   So why are the printers functioning properly, and listed in the proper places (meaning my system sees the P2015dn on the network and uses it with no problems), but the HP service is logging errors?  FYI, the only HP network device I have is the printer. 
You'll have to explain that one before I go to the trouble of doing a full backup and a clean install of Windows 8,  then a full restore.  You're talking HOURS AND HOURS here with no gaurantee of success, and I suspect having nothing to do with the real problem of a missing file that is probably authored by HP, not Microsoft.
It's beginning to look like you guys don't know what file it's looking for either.  If it's actually a real windows .dll file and you know which one, I should be able to extract it from the windows disk to the proper folder and register it if needed.
