I did a search and it told me how to restart the spooler service but when I do that, it says the file cant be found.  I'm going to quit this f**king job.  I'm so sick of this raggedy bullsh*t in here I dont know what to do

I did all of this and it told me that it could not find the file.  It never even gave me the option to hit 'apply' again

Everytime I click start, I get an error and can go no further.  The start up type box closes before I can get a good look at it.  Is there a way I can reset my computer to some thing like 2 months ago??

Tone said:

1. Click Start, click Run, type "Services.msc" (without the quotation marks) in the open box and click OK.

2. Double-click "Printer Spooler" in the Services list.

3. Click Stop and click OK.

4. Click Start, click Run, type "%WINDIR%\system32\spool\printers" in the open window, and delete all files in this folder.

5. Click Start, click Run, type "Services.msc" (without the quotation marks) in the open box and click OK.

6. Double-click "Printer Spooler" in the Services list.

7. Click on Start. In the Startup Type list, make sure that "Automatic" is selected and click OK.
