Print Spooler Service Stopped
May 13, 2010
Within the last couple of weeks the print spooler stops. The event viewer shows a message saying "print spooler service entered the stopped state" with an event ID of 7036. It does not display as an error - just as information There are no events on either side of it that are within an hour of the service stopping that shows that something occurred that might have triggered the event. I can restart service without any problem and print to all of the printers. It will stop again within a couple of days.

In my 64-bit installation, the print spooler server suddenly stopped running (and will not restart). I've tried cleaning out registry keys (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlPrint), deleting the files out of Windows (C:WindowsSystem32spool) to no avail. The system log contains many of these:Error Service Control Manager Eventlog Provider7034None The application log contains these:WarningSpoolerSpoolss1035NoneThe print spooler failed to load print provider localspl.dll. This can occur because of system instability or a lack of system resources.ErrorSpoolerSpoolss1027None The system failed to initialize the local print provider: Error 0. This can occur because of system instability or a lack of system resources.

When installing a printer - at various stages of the process, the installation will fail. Two messages appear:
1) Unable to install printer. Operation could not be completed (error 0x000006be)
2) Spooler subsystem app stopped working and was closed. A problem caused the application to stop working correctly.
Windows will notify you if a solution is available. This computer is running Windows Vista. This issue occurs with SP1 as well. This computer has been re-imaged several times and the issue is still there.

I was printing fine until one day I got an error that said, Print Spooler not running. I restarted the print spooler and tried again. I got the same message. I have reinstalled drivers and rebooted the system. I still get the same message. I can not add a printer or see the printers that are installed.

When connecting to network print devices. Printer Spooler crashes repeatedly. This happens on startup occationaly. It happens when running logon scripts. I have tried numerous scripts VBS and BAT files. All of which work 100% on XP boxes. When connecting manually it will load 1 or 2 devices then spooler will fail. I notice that there are 1000's of posts related to this issue. Is there a FIX or Workarount from Microsoft? Vista will never go in my enterprise at this rate...

I'm having the same problem but with an HP Laserjet 1022. I have reinstalled the LJ 1022 several times, but when you print from Adobe it kicks the spooler out. What you can do is unplug the printer from the computer, reboot and the spooler will come back. Then you reinstall the printer drivers/ software, plug it in when asked for and as long as the user doesn't print an Adobe PDF, the printer won't kick out. I believe this to be an HP issue with their driver that is almost 1yr old.

I've been printing from various apps without any problems since I purchased my PC in January. I started getting the error message " Thunking Spooler APIS from 32 to 64 process has stopped working" last Friday. It happens when I open Word 2007, and when I try to print in any other app including Notepad.
My OS is Vista 64 Home Premium with SP1. My printer is an Epson DX5050 and I have re-installed the latest drivers from Epson. The only changes I am aware of are various automatic updates which came out last week including Office 2007 SP1. I have tried a restore prior to last weeks updates but no difference.

i have plug in my HP laserJet 1010 into my laptop's usb port. I have even download the HP vistax64 driver for this particular printer. But the problem arise when i want to set printing preference for this printer. There will be an error and windows explorer will restart itself. But the problem is the printer can print out my document but do not allow me setup the print. Is it due to the vistax64 driver issue? Is there a workaround like installing the driver for Vista x86 instead? will there be any issue? To add on to my above problem, I get this error "Thunking Spooler APIS from 32 to 64 bit process has stopped working", when i tried to click on properties of the printer.

This involves my HP Pavilion dv9000t notebook with Vista Ultimate OS, & HP OfficeJet H470wbt (Bluetooth) printer. I am able to install the printer successfully. However, whenever I attempt to print anything I get a window stating: "Spooler Subsystem App stopped working and was closed". This happens both in Bluetooth & USB connection.
I have wasted my time dealing w/ HP support for almost a year. HP says the problem is with my OS. Per their instructions I even performed a complete recovery on my notebook & reinstalled everything back 6 times & my LapTop has been back to HP for warranty work twice. Nothing HP did or recommended has worked. The 1st new printer was returned & I was given a new one in exchange. Still the problem persists.
"Failed Solutions": http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareList?os=2093&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&product=3434461&lang=en
Removed drivers, re-installed drivers, verified print spooler settings & restart service, restarted the print spooler, temporary workarounds, etc. & nothing has worked.

I have Windows Vistax64 and recently I have been receiving the above message every time I try to open an Office application, Office 2003 32-bit is installed. If I remove all the printers I don't get this message, but if I add a network printer which has a Vistax64 bit driver I will start getting the error again. This has only been happening this week, maybe after some updates were installed.

I've a problem trying to print a document with Acrobat on remote MinoltaC353 printer. Windows gives me the following error: "Thunking Spooler APIS from 32 to 64 process has stopped working". I've found an Hotfix but it works only with Service Pack 1 and I'm under SP2.

Last night my Vista Ultimate x64 said there was 1 available update. This update was SP2 for Vista.
So I let it install. After the PC rebooted SP2 was installed, but, none of my games worked. Call Of Duty WAW, Call Of Duty 4, Prototype, Overlord, bionic commander each one of these games started to boot and then either shows me a blank screen, or crashes to desktop.
I found that there was later versions of my graphics card and my sound card so I updated both of these. It made no difference. I then uninstalled and re-installed Bionic Commander. Again no difference this game didn't work.

I had Vista and loved the look, and I heard VistaOSX was even better, so I got it and did the transformation pack. It was ok but I liked the look of Vista better so I tried switching the theme back, it worked. But then I shut down my computer for the night and when I turned it on the next day, I had the Windows BASIC theme.
I tried going to "Task Manager", ran it as an administrator then went to "Services" then scrolled down to themes and it was stopped. I turn it back on and it told me to restart my computer, I did and when I turned it back on, it didn't work, I kept getting: "Could not find file C:WindowsResourcesThemesaero.theme Because The Theme Service Is Not Running." Or Something Like That. Now for some reason, I am not getting that message. It changes the background of my computer to the Vista background but nothing else.

I can not longer share files ie video, music, pics, with any other pc in my house including my ps3. This just started 2 days ago. Everytime I started WMP11 I get the file sharing box telling me to check my sharing settings; I check them and and everything seems fine. I also have turned off both of my firewalls from Live Onecare and windows firewall. I currently am running Vista Ultimate 32bit with intel Q6600(quad core 2.40) 2gb ram, geforce 8600gts 512mb. I also recently cleaned up my desktop and don't know if I got rid of something I shouldn't have. WMP11 works fine. I also get this every 3 minutes or so popping up. Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service has stopped working
--> check online for a solution (recommended)
--> Close

I also have a network sharing service problem - Vista displays, occasion (and I havent worked out WHAT occasions yet): "windows media player network sharing service stopped working and was closed" - followed by some bulls£$t about windows informing me of a solution when it becomes available. This pop up appears relentlessly - about once every 30 seconds, and i can see the system performance hitting 100% CPU for 5 seconds or so each time it does.

running vista 64 SP1 RTM cannot print from IE nor print preview unless I turn UAC off in control panel. Cannot print even if opening IE as admin. (some sort of error message about C:/users/username/appdata/local/temp/low/ and some files therein.) Note, on a different machine with vista 32 SP1 beta2 refresh (never got around to installing SP1 RTM on this box) - UAC enabled and no print problem at all

We have recently got new hardware and upgraded to Vista. We have also just changed to fully networked printing. We are having some printing funnies, but mainly when printing from Excel - no idea why. Here is a selection of the printing problems we have had:
File-Print: Print dialog does not appear
File-Print/Print: Does not print, no printing message
File-Print/Print: Looks like it prints to printer (see printing message), but nothing prints out...........................................................................

I have spent so much time on this already. I had Lexmark all-in-one X5260 and an old Epson printer installed on my Vista Business Sony Vaio laptop without problem since early 2008. Yesterday I removed the old Epson, with problems, as it had a test print still in the spooler. Since then I have had ???Spooler SubSystem App??? problems and been unable to re-install or print from the Lexmark. I did System Restore back to the day before I removed the Epson printer. I carefully removed the Epson printer. Still no printing with Lexmark. I have followed the recommendations of many of the posts here, especially ???Spooler SubSystem App??? with Alan Morris and Eddie. I uninstalled Lexmark. I followed the procedure recommended in and presumed I deleted the drivers and spoolers.
However I was unable to do the ???net stop spooler??? and ???net stop spooler???. I got the response ???System error 5 has occurred. Access is denied???. In Command Prompt I was not at the root directory, I was at C:UsersVaio. (Vaio is my user name.) I am the only user of this laptop and my printer is plugged into a USB port, not networked. I then tried to install from the Lexmark 5200 Series CD. Before getting to the ???detecting your printer??? phase, I got the Spooler SubSystem App closed error message. Lexmark 5200 now appears in my printers but a test page print or doc print does not work.

When I printed from adobe reader I got a message spooler problem and it will be closed. I you go to advance option and go to print as a image printing goes fine. So if the printer is stuck go to registry and delete your printer and reinstall printer drivers.

I have the following error message when trying to login to vista on my laptop:
The User Profile Service service failed the login.
User profile cannot be loaded.
Just before the problem happened I was working to remove the Anti Virus Live virus from my laptop via the techsupportforum.com forum.
Two things I did within the hour of the problem happening are:
1. I ran the malware removal program OTL
See step 5 at (http://tinyurl.com/pr92qn)
2. I cleared and set system restore's cash-
as instructed in post#23 on my techsupportforum.com thread
(Anti Virus Live on my Laptop - Page 2 - Tech Support Forum)
Further details-I can and am able to login to Safe Mode I do not have a program called System Restore in the System Tools folder In Safe Mode I was able to change my password, but in normal mode I get the same error message I did windows updates and then tried to remove some of those updates, with only a few files that wouldn't allow me to delete them. Thank you for visiting my thread. If anyone has any ideas on how I can fix my problem it would be great to hear about them.

2. "The Windows Search Service has failed to created the new system catalog. Internal error <4,0x8004117f>."
I'm totally lost as how to solve this problem. I spent hours on the web trying to find a solution, with no luck sofar. Anyone here who has a clue how to solve this one?

I use Vista Ultimate 64.
For the past few weeks I've been having an issue with an Apple made service called "Bonjour Service". That service is used in several pieces of software including iTunes (which I do not use) but also some Adobe applications (Version Cue for example) and the font management utility I use which is Extensis Suitcase 11.0.1 for Windows.
Both Version Cue and Suitcase depend on the Bonjour Service to work and I have had no issues with it for months but recently, the Bonjour Service stopped working and would not start anymore. It now gives this error message when trying to start it:
"('Bonjour Service' failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services."
My user account is an admin account so privileges is not an issue. I had made no changes to my system myself before the Bonjour service began to "refuse" starting but I remember that I installed a few Windows updates a couple days prior. My machine is always on and I don't re-boot everyday.
So I was wondering if anyone has heard of the issue and knows how I might fix it or if anyone can give me pointers on how I my start trouble shooting this and find what started preventing the Bonjour Service from starting. FWIW, the Windows Firewall is already off and turning off my anti-virus doesn't help (Eset NOD32).

I had a problem printing documents - the 'spooler subsystem app' was not functioning properly. So I found this site: You cannot add a printer, and you receive printer spooler error messages, and didn't see the fact that this troubleshooting page was for XP only. So I followed the instructions, and basically ended up deleting nearly all registry files in safe mode except the default ones. When I realized I had messed up, I performed a system restore that I had created immediately before editing the registry files. After the system restore, Vista wouldn't boot. So I restarted and booted in safe mode, got confirmation that the system had been restored, and restarted once again in Vista. Now, I have some annoying problems:
-the start menu freezes. I can click the menu, but i can't click any icons on the start menu itself. -Windows Live OneCare won't start -System restore will not boot. when I start it in the start menu (before start menu freezes), I see in task manager that rstrui.exe (the System restore file) is running as a process, but no application appears. How can i restore my computer?

Lately when I've tried looking at different folders and files on my hard drives I keep getting "Windows Explorer has stopped working and will restart." It's driving me nuts, I can barely do anything.
Also, same thing with Internet Explorer...I'm getting real sick of Vista's shoddiness..

After trying at least a dozen suggestions without success, I followed this procedure to be able to print on a locally attached printer on a network PC with Win/XP home from another PC on the network that is running Vista Home Premium 64-bit ......
1. Open the Printers folder on the client computer from which you want to print, right-click a blank part of the window, click Run as administrator, click Add Printer.
2. In the Add Printer wizard, click Add a local printer.
3. On the Choose a printer port page, click Create a new port, select Local Port, and then click Next.
4. In the Port Name dialog box, type the network path to the printer to which you want to print. For example \server1printer1 (where server1 is the computer name of the print server and printer1 is the share name for the printer). Then click OK.
Note: Creating a local port instructs the client computer to use its own printer driver to render the printer as a RAW print job and send it directly to the port (which in this case goes to the print server). This obviates the need for the print server to provide feedback to the client, which can work around some authentication issues, as well as issues with mismatched driver versions on the print server and the client computer.
