John, I'm second to your opinion. I was wondering why people continue to
complain heavily about Nikon Scan after ver. 3.1.2 became available.
I'm not a programmer, and wouldn't mind how exactly it was written and why
they chosen particular style of programming, but rather enjoyed the software
working stable, delivering predictable results in most cases
(more then 90 % of cases) and UI is intuitive enough to allow ordinary
no BSc in Computer Science holding users to process their work quickly.
(I don't think my electronics engineering education and experience have
something to do helping me out to understand usage of UI of Nikon Scan).

Regards,
Alex Z

I use Nikon scan all the time and I use Windows. The earlier NS did have an
awful interface, but the current one is very user friendly.
And the end product is excellent scans from pos and neg, in fact far
superior to Vuescan which I have stopped using due to its erratic colour
correction (I mean green skin tones for one)
On top of that NS just keeps on going even on a full day scanning section

The conflict between the Nikon Scan interface and that of Windows generally
is obvious even to the novice, and indeed, someone who has used only Windows
interfaces is probably the most likely to be disoriented by Nikon's
departure from the norm.  It's time-consuming figure out how to make rollers
and drawers work in this program, when these inteface widgets are not used
by any other Windows software.
