From: Coach on 10 Aug 2010 16:23 My print spooler is not working. I have had to enable something before, but cannot remember how i did it? I think it was something in device manager. Any Ideas?

The Print Spooler Service should be set to Automatic in Services.msc. If it is set that way, but you keep finding it in a stopped condition after rebooting the computer, something is wrong - the service is crashing for some reason. The real problem needs to be addressed. The event log should provide some clues. |
