Hello, how are you?

The 'Microsoft to Print' driver is accidentally deleted.

  1. I couldn't find the printer driver from Control Panel >> Devices and Printers >> Add Printer ('Windows Update' button didn't make it show up)
  2. In 'Windows Features', the Microsoft Print to PDF is checked marked already

It would be grateful if I would get help..

    Open Command Prompt as Admin and then type or copy then paste the following command, then hit Enter:

    dism /Online /Disable-Feature /FeatureName:"Printing-PrintToPDFServices-Features" /NoRestart

    Wait while the command executes successfully

    At the command prompt, type or copy then paste the second command, then hit Enter:

    dism /Online /Enable-Feature /FeatureName:"Printing-PrintToPDFServices-Features" /NoRestart

    Wait while the command executes successfully.

    You should now see the Microsoft Print to PDF restored.
