Microsoft Print to PDF Win 11 Pro 24H2 Missing After May Updates
Posted by hamway22@reddit | sysadmin | View on Reddit | 6 comments
Hi All,
Anyone running into an issue where the microsoft print to pdf printer has disappeared from your machines?
Turning the feature off then on returns an error (0x800f0922) and I cannot add manually since after letting windows update the drivers, windows printer drivers themselves never appear in the list.
I've tried using powershell and even adding registry keys but nothing is working.
There are intel CPU's not ARM. Anyone have a workaround or seen anything similar to this?

Yeah, I saw that thread before too, but it didn't work for me. Thank you for the suggestion though

the trick for me was to get a copy of the prnms driverstore folder from a win11 pc that had print to pdf and copy it to a network share that i could copy to the pc ... did you see the script that i posted in that thread?
