    Fall Creators Update breaks printing to network shares


    Fall Creators Update breaks printing to network shares b2a42db8-fbe3-43b5-b2d3-8fdcbca2f336?upload=true.png

    In the picture above, RUMCAJS refers to the Windows 10-computer with a freshly installed Fall Creators Update, and AKI is another computer - running Windows 7 - with an HP LaserJet 6L attached to it. You can see that the printer is visible to RUMCAJS, and that I've double-clicked on the printer share to begin printer installation.


    This fails:

    Fall Creators Update breaks printing to network shares 7a847a73-e77e-4800-a076-bc6bdc274f10?upload=true.png

    To move things along, I have downloaded the requisite driver from the Microsoft Update Catalog, clicked OK and then pointed to the INF file like so:

    Fall Creators Update breaks printing to network shares 7af552dc-2377-470f-bfb4-07aab50d6929?upload=true.png

    Clicking 'Open' and then 'OK' produces the following:

    Fall Creators Update breaks printing to network shares 0a5fb66c-254c-4750-9819-53cbfe854750?upload=true.png

    I've googled high and low and could not find a solution. The printing worked fine on RUMCAJS under Windows 10 before the Fall Creators Update. It continues to work fine from another computer (not shown) running Windows 7.


    I tried installing the printer driver manually by right-clicking on the INF file and selecting 'Install'. This apparently went fine, but did not resolve the connectivity problems.


    Any assistance will be much appreciated. Thank you.

    :)

    Fall Creators Update breaks printing to network shares

    Disk bloat in Windows 10 Fall Creators Update

    Is it my imagination, or does the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update consume an additional 20-30GB of disk space over the previous Creators Update release? Unfortunately, I didn't log my disk usage before the upgrade, but now my C: drive has 56GB of stuff, and I know it wasn't anywhere near that full before. I've run "Disk Cleanup -> Clean up system files" and selected everything on the list, including remove previous version of Windows. I also emptied my Recycle Bin, my Temp folder, \Windows\Temp folder, and \Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download folder. Finally, I ran Wise Disk Cleaner to delete assorted application garbage.

    Has anyone else noticed the bloat in Fall Creators Update?
