"Thanks, this worked for me.

I downouaded the Canon Driver for Windows 8.1 (64 bit),
and then I ran it in compatibility mode for Windows 8,
exactly as you instructed.

i thought I was going to have to scrap my perfectly
good hardware, but it's working fine again now!

there is always Vuescan...

As a long-time user of Vuescan, I support the suggestion that it is a
decent product worthy of consideration. However, the most recent driver
I see for the Canon 8800F is for Win 8.1:

I suspect that this may be yet another case where Win10 users in need of
drivers for particular hardware have to sit on their hands and hope.
