    Delay in creating folders or printing - only the first time


    Hello All, Hoping to get some solution. I've had this problem for a couple of years now. Had it with Win10 and now with Win11 Pro 64-bit. i9-9900K CPU @ 3.60GHz , 32GB RAM, OS on SSD.The first time I create a folder, it takes 20+ seconds for the folder to appear. Likewise, the first time I print something, it takes several seconds while "connecting to printer" message stays displayed. Both of these issues are not present the second or subsequent times. Like if I create a second folder, it gets created instantly. Doesn't matter if I use GUI or command line. Likewise, if I open another doc and p

    Microsoft Print to PDF mixes up JPGs.

    Hi Anita,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    To understand the issue better, I suggest you to answer the below questions.

    • What happens when you select small bunch of images and try to print?
    • Is the issue specific to the Microsoft Print to PDF?
    I would suggest you to follow the below steps and check if it helps you.

    • Create a new folder and copy the images you want in PDF.
    • Sort the images as you want. (It always copies as per the sorted time/date)
    • Set the images in Order/Sequence as you want it to be set in PDF.
    • Select all and Print it to PDF.
    Keep us posted to help you better.

    C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\OneDrive\CATS 6A", as listed in the error message). Create a missing folder was suggested by one of the community members, Pls let me know the steps to follow in order to create a missing folder.

    Delay in creating folders or printing - only the first time

    Occasionally "Microsoft print to pdf" creates empty files

    Have already done all of the steps suggested in that link.
    The problem only happens occasionally; maybe two or three times a day.
    Happening on several PC's, the only way to catch it before it goes to customers is the size of the file created.
    If it is 0 or 1kb, it's a blank document.
    Microsoft Print to pdf was working fine until about two weeks ago.
    Thank You
