    Somewhere along the way I lost my context menu print function

    Hi, have you ever used any tool such as Shellexview (free) to disable context menu entries?

    Try downloading and installing and running that and see if you see a list of entries listed as disabled.

    Print is a default Windows item, so if lost suggests some sort of corruption may have occurred.

    As a matter of course, try running
    chkdsk c: /scan
    and then if ok
    SFC /SCANNOW
    - both from an admin command or powershell prompt and post the result.

    What is your Windows build?
    Windows key + R, winver

    • Are you able to use function keys using on screen keyboard?
