Solution Neemobeer Jul 8, 2021 If you disable the print spooler yes. This would need to be run from an elevated Powershell prompt. Work-around to protect yourself from the issue Code: Stop-Service -Name 'Spooler' Set-Service -Name 'Spooler' -StartupType Disabled Re-enable the service Start-Service -Name 'Spooler' Set-Service -Name 'Spooler' -StartupType Automatic
