  1. Can't Start Camera on Windows Subsystem


    I my camera fails to work on the Windows Subsystem for Android. I decided to make a WhatsApp call on my pc but got the notification from the subsystem showing "can't start camera. Please check camera permissions in system settings". I am running the subsystem for android version 2211.40000. 10.0 I then downloaded a camera app from the Google Play Store and I get the information in the picture provided below. Meanwhile, I have enabled camera permissions in the system and my pc camera is working perfectly.

    :)

    Spooler SubSystem app

    Hi DaveM121,

    I have done what you posted a number of times. The first time there a file in

    " C:\windows\system32\spool\PRINTERS" and I deleted it. But since then everytime I go throu these steps there is no file in this folder.

    After I go thru the steps you list the Spooler SubSystem app is not active and my CPU usage is low. But the next time that I print anything on the HP OfficeJet Pro 8715 the Spooler SubSystem app starts to utilize more then 50% of the CPU again. This cycle
    happens over and over. I was looking for a more permanent solution.

    Thanks for your time. Don B.
