"Fax driver in use" error blocks me from installing Canon software and drivers.

I just finished a rebuild (Windows 10 PC) and purchased a new Windows 11 PC. I'm installing the software for my printer and I keep getting stuck on this message. Currently trying to run m68n-win-mb2700-1_02-ea34_2 ("MB2700 series XPS Printer Driver Ver.6.00a (Windows)")

I have tried:

1. Closing all applications.

2. Closing all applications and disconnecting all peripherals including printer.

3. #1 and #2 and disabling Windows Print and Document services.

4. Eating.

Any suggestions? Should I physically remove the fax driver files? How do I know where they all are? Is this just a software glitch (I'm 90% certain I had this issue on both OS--Windows 10 machine is currently unavailable to test).

Is there a work around?
