I also presume this is a common inquiry. Unfortunately, the Search function for this forum excludes the word "fax" for being too common or something, so I couldn't find an existing thread.

Previous versions of Windows included Fax Service as an operating system component if specifically enabled via the "Add/Remove Windows Components" function within the "Add/Remove Programs" Control Panel. I see no way to get such a service capability under Vista.

Your suggestions appreciated!

the windows version is only available in ultimate and business versions of vista



if it is not suitable to upgrade. your best bet would be a third party application

Many thanks!!
