PDE.plugin

I need the link to the Apple software that will reinstall my HP printer so I can sort the PDE.plugin problem. I have deleted the printer and need the link to proceed. I received it in response to a request on this site but it disappeared before I could use it.

MacBook, macOS 10.15

PDE.plugin Hello I need some help if you can. Last week I got a pop up saying product improvement study.hptask will damage your computer. So I deleted it and emptied the trash and ran malwarebytes. Nothing came up. Than I got PDE.login pop up saying same thing. I deleted it and emptied the trash. Ran malware bytes and nothing came up. When I searched here it seems the problem was the printer. I see there is a fix for the driver. I did not do that yet since I no longer have the pde.plugin on my computer. 1. Do I need PDE.plugin on my computer or was it part of the printer? 2. If I need PDE.plugin, can I download somewhere or can I get it from a time machine backup. I have a external drive with a backup on it. If I can get it from the time machine machine backup, can you explain how to do it. I have not needed to use the time machine backup yet. Thanks for any help you can provide me. I am using Catalina.

HP made a plotka. Please see this post from one of our senior contributors who spoke with HP:

NOTE! Use the last method. The first one that HP released made things worse:
