Hello!

Sample app cannot find FreeImage virtual scanner.

What I do:

  1. Install Twain sample app;
  2. Run this one in GUI and in console;
  3. See empty list of available scanners in both.

What should be:
FreeImage virtual scanner is in list of available scanners in GUI and in console app.

I noticed the bug in Win 7 and Win 10 OS with x32 and x64 versions of installer.

Thank you for your help.

You have to install both TWAIN Sample application and TWAIN Sample Data source. There are 32 bit and 64 bit installers for each one of them. Use 32 bit installers for 32 bit OS and 64 bit installers for 64 bit OS.
Application (64 and 32 bit installers are in the ZIP):

Data source
https://sourceforge.net/projects/twain-samples/files/TWAIN%202%20Sample%20Data%20Source/TWAIN%20DS%202.1.3/twainds.win64.installer.2.1.3.msi/download
