Windows 10: The Printer Extensions and Notifications service is marked as an interactive service

​

We noticed that a program failed on startup and when investigating further in the Event Viewer, we stumbled upon Event ID 7030.

The service is marked as an interactive service. However, the system is configured to not allow interactive services. This service may not function properly.

Hello,

I'm having a hard time making my USB WiFI adapater and RedGear gamepad work on my PC. Both the devices are shown under "Other devices" in the Device Manager. If I try to update the driver automatically or by pointing the direction to the WinSxS folder (got
that from another forum, I guess), I get an error that "Windows found drivers for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install them."

When I looked the Event Viewer it showed the following error; "The RealtekWlanU service is marked as an interactive service. However, the system is configured to not allow interactive services. This service may not function properly." I couldn't find anything
related to the gamepad there though.

This is going on for a week now on my new PC and is really frustrating. Any help would be really appreciated.

 

Printer Spooler Service will not start

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

Please follow the methods given below to resolve this issue:

Method 1:

Delete the pending files in printer folder and check:

• Press Windows key + R and type services.msc in the search field and press enter.
• In the Services listed stop the Print Spooler service.
  
• In Windows Explorer, navigate to the folder below, and open the PRINTERS.

C:\Windows\system32\spool\PRINTERS

• Click on Continue or Yes (if prompted by UAC) to approve opening the PRINTERS folder.
• Delete all files in the PRINTERS folder until it is empty, and then close Windows Explorer. Note: DO NOT DELETE the PRINTERS folder itself. Only delete its contents.
  
  Open Services, and start the Print Spooler service.

Method 2:

Let's start the all the dependencies service for the printer spooler service. Follow the steps provided.

• Press Windows key + R and type services.msc in the search field and press ENTER.
• Scroll down toPrint spooler.
• Right click and click properties, click the tab “Dependencies”
• Note all of the dependent services listed, and then close thePrint Spooler Properties window.

If any of the dependent services are missing or cannot be started, try uninstalling all installed printer drivers and then reinstalling them.

Method 3:

If the issue still persists, I would suggest you to install the latest driver for the printers from the manufacturer website and check if it helps. You can also refer to the article mentioned below if the issue persists.

Method 4:

You may also try to temporarily disable security software from the computer and try to print. If you are able to print, you may contact the security software Manufacturer and check if you need to change any settings

Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do have
to temporarily disable it to install other software, you should re-enable it as soon as you're done.

Hope the information helps, if you have any further queries, feel free to post. We are here to assist you.

Allow service to interact with desktop in Windows 2019 server

When you update to or install Windows 10 Version 1803 or later or Server 2019, the Interactive Services Detection Service (UI0Detect) will no longer be present. Windows services marked as "Allow service to interact with the desktop" via the Services applet (i.e. services.msc) are no longer granted interactive with desktop rights by the Windows Service Control Manager (SCM). Hence, even when you switch desktop to Session 0, those native interactive services will no longer be visible. I have a service that cannot be run under a local user and requires this service, is there an option to get this feature back since all the settings are still present.
