Windows 10: Faulting application name spoolsv.exe -The Print Spooler service terminated unexpectedly -...

Welcome to this mess!


I upgraded a PC to Windows 10 Pro this week, and am unable to add printers due to apparent corruption of the Print Spooler. Event viewer showing the following Application and System errors.


I have performed the following to try to resolve


Ran the Printer Diagnostic tool

Changed Print Spooler Service recovery options

Deleted files from print spooler

Uninstalled all printers

Uninstalled all Printer software

Used the Program Install and Uninstall troubleshooter to uninstall items not shown in "Programs & Features"

Ran sfc.exe /scannow

Unplugged USB printer when plugged in the HP install program adds printer but installation "fails/hangs" - device is added but does not work

Ran Printer Diagnostic tool - no USB printer plugged in - doesnt detect network printer


Time to get help!!!

Print spooler shuts down, can no longer print from a Dell laptop running Windows 10.

Thank you for the rapid response.

Method 1 led back through the diagnostics, which determined that the "print Spooler service isn't running"

, as we knew. It then led to re-installing the printer and restarting the computer.

After the restart, the print spooler service still was not running.

After the computer was restarted, an attempt to manually start the spooler service resulted in

" Windows could not start the Print Spooler service on the local computer. ERROR 1067. the process terminated unexpectedly."

METHOD 2: as advised, I checked the dependencies for the print spooler service.

Listed were: HTTP Service and Remote Procedure Call (RPC)

The Remote Procedure Call was listed in the Services and was indicated to be running.

HTTP Service was NOT LISTED. Should it show up somewhere else, or is this the problem ?

Any suggestions ?

thanks.

The Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) service terminated unexpectedly.


The Windows Image Acquisition (WIA) service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 1 time(s).

That's the Event Viewer error message at every reboot (appears to occur during the shutdown phase).
There is a concurrent fault listed for the Canon scanner driver, CNC210C.DLL, which is not corrupted.

Clues on how to banish these errors? Or should they simply be ignored, as they do no apparent harm....

 

Print Spooler Service Stopping

Drugged up on Pain Med's, exhausted from barely any sleep for four days and trying to type on a iPhnone. The USB driver and queue can end up stalling. Have you checked the print queue to see if there are jobs stalled or in the Print Spooler folder? Also grab the Process Explorer by Sysinternals from Microsoft.com. It will allow you to see the Sub Process, especially under the System process. See the following:

Clear Printer Spooler Files

• Click Start, type Services.msc in Search box or Click WIN+Q, type “Services.msc” in the open box.
• Services can be found under Computer Management on older operation system (Windows XP)
• Double-click Printer Spooler in the list.
• Click Stop and click OK.
• Open C:\Windows\System32\spool\PRINTERS.

I cannot find the tutorial, this is a more extensive way to check Print spooler stopping automatically on Windows 10, Windows 8 and 8.1 windowstricks.in
