<pre>Confirmed. The problem is with 64-bit LO.
The built-in scanner extension uses twain_32.dll on 32-bit Windows, and
TWAINDSM.DLL on 64-bit Windows. The TWAINDSM.DLL is an open-source third-party
library (<a href="https://github.com/twain/twain-dsm">https://github.com/twain/twain-dsm</a>), normally absent on user's system.
Copying the TWAINDSM DLL from the project's official site to LibreOffice
program directory (beside soffice.bin) allows showing the scanner selector
window... which could well be empty, because it is required that scanner vendor
provide 64-bit scan drivers, which is almost never the case.
However, we should either remove the extension from 64-bit build, or ship the
library with program.</pre>
