  2. Cannot reinstall Microsoft XPS Document Writer

    I tried to use an Intuit QuickBooks tool to fix a problem with saving to a pdf. The tool deleted Microsoft XPS Document Writer from my printer list and then was unable to add it back. Intuit gave me a link to instructions for re-installing Microsoft XPS
    Document Writer (https://community.intuit.com/articles/1019822-reinstall-microsoft-xps-document-writer-in-windows-7-8) myself. I followed the instruction exactly, but in the end got an error message "Unable to install printer. The handle is invalid." and I
    have no idea what that means. I tried the Microsoft fixit DeviceCenterDiagnostic but it did not find anything. I tried to re-install Microsoft XPS Document Writer by choosing that I had a disk and browsed to the .inf file and in the end got the same error
    message "Unable to install printer. The handle is invalid." How can I get around that and get Microsoft XPS Document Writer back as a valid printer?
