Issue:
Every time you start your computer or solution center an error message appear requiring you to insert your psswcore disc.
Cause:
Basically psswcore.msi maybe partially installed or removed from your your computer and windows installer is trying to fix it by loading the windows installer package located in your CD : setup\hpphotosmartcore\.
Solutions:
- Locate and Install – Browse the windows installer package in your disc in complete installation. location should be x:\setup\hpphotosmartcore\, wherein X is your drive letter.
- No such file (psswcore.msi)? – If you do not have this file in your CD then most probably this from a previous HP product that you have that may be partially uninstalled. To fix this problem follow the steps on this article, “The feature you are tyring to use is on the disc error messages with Hp“.
If you have additional questions regarding the process please comment below with your product number, and a brief description of your problem. Incomplete questions will not be approved/entertained. Thank you.

Dear Mr. Nikolai Einstein:
Thanking you for thoughtful help at this forum. (You are a family member possibly of that famous scientist?) I – rather my computer and Printer – also suffer from same problems here described. After following all support instructions, there is no relief. Thanks, you could please share link address for full free software at hp.com? Apologies for not complete English speaking.
