    Windows 10 cannot print - printspooler issue


    We have W10 on all family PCs.


    My yougest kids PC cannot print - ever.

    It's a printspooler issue and easy enough to fix - restart the printspooler.


    However, I'd like a fix rather than a workaround


    Anyone know how to fix this - printspooler is set to start automatically.

    :)
