Windows 10: QuickBooks can't complete the current action due to a missing component

Suddenly having multiple Windows 10 1909 users have issues with creating PDFs in QuickBooks Desktop 2020. This feature depends on Microsoft XPS Document Writer v4 printer and it is not longer working and neither is Microsoft Print to PDF. I tried to repair using QB repair tool, DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth , tried sfc /scannow , tried remove and add back using Turn Windows Features on or off and it removes them, but then presents an error 0x800f0922. Nothing fixes it, which leads me to think it's a bug in Windows. I've also noticed recently that V4 printer drivers seem to be breaking on many of our PC's as well which I think is related because I believe both the Microsoft Print to PDF and Microsoft XPS Document Writer v4 printer use these types of drivers.


This seems to have happened in the past week today is 4/24/2020. Tried uninstalling latest cumulative update, but still having the issue.


Anybody have any solutions aside from resetting Windows. Do not want to reset 10 or more different PC's that were working fine.

Unable to print after installing Windows 10

After installing Windows 10, I am unable to print or email anything out of Quickbooks 2012. The error message says: “Quickbooks can’t complete the current action due to a missing component". I contacted
Quickbooks/Intuit and was told that Windows 10 and Quickbooks are not compatible; and that I must upgrade to Quickbooks 2015. There must be a way to solve this other than having to buy a new version of Quickbooks. Any help??

 

QuickBooks crash while opening data file

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



As you have mentioned that after Windows and QuickBooks update whenever you open a data file in QuickBooks, it crashes. We would like to know if any other programs are crashing apart from QuickBooks.



I suggest you to refer the troubleshooting steps mentioned below:



Method 1: Repair QuickBooks



I suggest you to try repairing QuickBooks and then open data file in it. Please follow the steps mentioned below:

1. Press Windows key + R, to open
   Run dialog box.
   
2. Type appwiz.cpl and click on
   OK.
   
3. Look for QuickBooks application from the list, right click on it and select
   Repair.
   
4. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the repair process.
   

If repairing QuickBooks didn’t fix the issue, please refer Method 2.



Method 2: Open Sample data file



You can try opening a Sample data file in QuickBooks and check if QuickBooks crash. If QuickBooks didn’t crash while opening Sample data file, I suspect that the data file that you are trying to open is causing the crash. In this case, I suggest you
to contact the
QuickBooks support team.
