    Hi @BW

    Win + R → type appwiz.cpl → Enter

    go to Turn Windows features on or off. if tick un-tick click ok then restart your pc. then come this screen tick and try.

    Hi BW,

    The 0x800f0922 error when enabling Microsoft Print to PDF in Windows 11 24H2 often points to a corrupted feature store or a blocked update component. Since optionalfeatures.exe, manual driver addition, and DISM repairs didn’t resolve it, the next step is to dig a bit deeper.

    One option is to remove and re‑add the Print to PDF feature using PowerShell with elevated rights: Disable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Printing-PrintToPDFServices-Features -NoRestart followed by Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName Printing-PrintToPDFServices-Features -All -NoRestart. If that still fails, check the CBS logs (C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log) for specific errors tied to the feature installation. These logs often reveal whether the issue is with the component store or a dependency.

    Another useful workaround is to run DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup before re‑enabling the feature, which can clear out broken references. If the component store itself is damaged, mounting the Windows 11 24H2 ISO and running DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /Source:wim:D:\sources\install.wim:1 /LimitAccess can repair it using a clean source.

    Finally, if none of these steps succeed, you can manually install the “Microsoft Print to PDF” printer via Add-PrinterDriver and Add-Printer in PowerShell, pointing to the inbox driver files located under C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository.

    Give this a try and let me know how it goes. If you find this answer helpful, please hit “accept answer” so I know your issue has been addressed.

    Jason.
