Latest Windows 10 Update

It sounds like you have something else going on with your system. Have you tried running the repair or diagnostic tools? Maybe one of your updates was interrupted or is corrupt.
My system had a large Windows update yesterday which took about an hour. I checked my dad's system checking for updates while I was there, and installed the same update. No issues before or after either one.

Sometimes I can truly say “life is good”....
Woke up early and got up early. Decided to get on line in other room on PC rather than on “smart phone”. Turned on PC, got coffee but screen said “windows updating. Do not turn off computer. So I waited ... drank coffee and waited. And waited. No notice of percent complete. So I waited. Now I panicked and cursed. Got my phone and checked in to TBN while watching my pc screen.
Wa la! First thread was on Win 10 update issues. While continuing to watch pc screen, I read the entire thread. About that time pc screen now showed 18% complete!
Wa la... one more time. So I got 2nd coffee. Drank it. Eventually update finished and Windows 10 home edition ( I guess and it was a free download) finally came up.
One hour later everything was finished... so I shared this reply.
Have a great day!

Sometimes I have had to go into device manager and remove items before something would work. I remove offending items, then reboot, then try setup again.

Think my BIOS got screwed by the Windows 10 update. Immediately after the update, the computer would not restart: saying hard drive failure. I fussed with it and got it going. Think the update f____d the BIOS. When you go online about loss of audio, they say the BIOS (Basic Input Output System) is the problem. This coupled with the printer problem tells me it is the BIOS. Can send files via email to my iPad to substitute for little bit of printing I need. Gives me a portable "piece of paper" with what I need. Will hobble along this way until I get my next master gardener newsletter out the 15th to about the 18th. May set up an appointment with some computer people we used 6 months or so ago to fix my wife's Outlook on her computer. Don't think I want to tackle a BIOS fix. Falls into the same territory as messing with that other computer file (forgotten its name) written in computer language.

I tried all sorts of things last night and this morning short of going into the BIOS. New printer just won't go. It prints if you want to make a copy, just like the old one will.

Decided to find the new printer from my iPad. Found it from a couple of them and even printed a test pg. wanted $ to print other stuff. Deleted them. Found a free one called e-print. Weirdly, iOS 13 has no built in print. Anyway, I know the new printer is installed. Just will not work with my PC.

Weirdly enough, cannot see new printer from wife’s pooter. Can see hers from mine (but will not work).

Is your printer plugged into the network? Did you share the printer on your PC??

Had to “add printer” on wife’s pooter. Got it.

Also finally found print option in iPad mail: way down at the bottom of a long scroll from “reply” option. Printed out fine. Printer is fine. My pooter print is botched along with sound.
