Which Windows 10 update is causing printer problems

As of my knowledge, a Windows 10 update that caused printer issues for some users was the update (KB5003637). This update led to issues with some printer models, including problems with printing and scanning. However, subsequent updates may have addressed this issue, and other updates may also cause problems.

Keep in mind that my knowledge is not up to date, and there may have been more recent updates causing printer problems in Windows 10. It's essential to stay informed about the latest updates and their potential impact on your system.

If you suspect that a specific Windows 10 update is causing issues with your printer, you can try uninstalling the update to see if it resolves the problem:

  1. Press the Windows key + I to open Settings.
  2. Go to "Update & Security" and click on "Windows Update."
  3. Click on "View update history."
  4. Click on "Uninstall updates" to open the "Installed Updates" window.
  5. Find the update you want to uninstall, right-click on it, and select "Uninstall."

After uninstalling the update, check if your printer is working correctly. If the issue is resolved, you can temporarily defer the update until a more stable version is released. To defer updates:

  1. Press the Windows key + I to open Settings.
  2. Go to "Update & Security" and click on "Windows Update."
  3. Click on "Advanced options."
  4. In the "Pause updates" section, select a date to pause updates until that specific date.

Please note that deferring updates can leave your system vulnerable to security risks, so it's essential to monitor for new updates and install them once they become available and are deemed stable.
