Windows 10: Print spooler error after update

Hi there,I have 2 computers on the same network that whenever I try to do an bigger Windows Update windows 11, 22H , after that the print spooler will not work anymore. Tried all tips to get the print spooler back working but it will not help. Only thing that helped was deleting the last update, but just not updating the computer doesn't look like a solution to me.
