or so the computer thinks. shows up as running in services and processes,
but in the printers and faxes folder when trying to change properties or
preferences on a shared printer, get error message that print spooler is not
running. then it says unable to connect under the printers that are
shared/connected to other computers. this all happened within the past 2
weeks. worked fine up to that point. then today got the security update of
the print spooler vunerability.

what do i do to make everything work again; printing in general, adding
shared printers as printer onto computer, etc.?

hope i didn't confuse everyone too much. just to the point of frustration
and thoughts are running together.
