Is this the correct download to stop the newest threat? Microsoft urgent appeal to update pc's as noted today.

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
Sort by date Sort by votes
If you disable the service, the next time you reboot it will be stopped

Ok good. I'm done. I hope they come up with a better fix than this anytime soon. Must really be annoying for businesses. First the pandemic and now Microsoft. :culpability:
