    Winspool.drv Error


    One of our sites is having an issue with printing. If they try to open devices and printers it flashes but doesn't open. If they try to print a report Adobe crashes. EV shows that it is the winspool.drv is faulting and we are getting a 0xc0000005 error code. I have already recreated the winspool.drv file and rebooted. I have also removed all printers and printer drivers but it is still doing the same thing. Any idea how to get it running?

    MSACM32 dll and drv issues in Windows 10

    Original Title: MSACM32 dll and drv issues

    I've been having issues for the past 2 weeks when attempting to use lots of different programs. (including skype, spotify, GeForce Experience etc. ). using SFC, I've found that msacm32.drv is corrupt. (skype and spotify report not finding msacm32.dll)

    From what I can tell/my limited knowledge, this seems to affect anything using UDP type streaming (no buffer). and any suggestions would be helpful. I've tried:

    SFC

    CHKDSK

    DISM

    Windows 10 reset (with a fresh iso)

    If anyone wants any more specific info, ask.
