Another error solved. Well, not now, some time ago  but it has started to be very annoying because we still have it.

ERROR:
Set Config Application has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for inconvenience.

This usually appear when windows starts and there are some problems with some drivers, in most cases HP printers.

I've recently have that error again and wanted to share the solution with you here, to help you get through it.

I've installed an HP LaserJet 1010 Series Driver and at the end, the program said that did not finished successfully but the printer works fine.

But at every windows restart, the error appears without shame :-).

From their official page, the error may occur for the following models of HP Printers:


LaserJet 1010/1012/1015 Series
LaserJet 1150
LaserJet 1160
LaserJet 1300 Series
LaserJet 1320 Series
LaserJet 3015/3020/3030/3380 Series
Color LaserJet 2550
