I need some help, please. I am running Vista Home Premium (32-bit). I been
receiving an error message each morning when I turn on my machine "Spooler
SubSystem App stopped working and was closed". My local printer does not
work, nor can I print across my LAN. I wrote a question about this before
and received a suggestion to try this:

http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;324757

But that did not help the problem. I also tried a system restore to before
the time the printer problem occurred, but it failed twice when it came to
point of restoring the registry. The only thing that happened to my machine
at the time of the spooler failure was an update to Adobe Reader, so I also
tried uninstalling that, but still no success. I am at wit's end and I
really need to be able to print (for preparing my taxes). Can anyone help?

On the site mention in your post go only to register and remove your
printer. Reinstall drivers for the printer. Go to the acro reader and set
printer so that it print acro document as an image.
It worked for me.

Dear Boba,

I have removed my printer, following the procedure from the KB article, but
I cannot get the print spooler to function. I start it in services, but
after a minute or so it crashes. So I cannot reinstall the driver for my
printer. I do not have the LexBCE Server installed and there are no
dependencies listed for Print Spooler (other than DCOM Process Server
Launcher).

It seems like the Print Spooler is corrupted. How can I repair/restore the
print spooler in Vista Home Premium? I found the KB article for XP, but I
don't think that would work with Vista since the installation procedure is
very different.

Are there any system or application events when the spooler terminates.

Dear Alan,

Thank you for your reply.

I am not certain what you are asking, but I think the answer is "No". Each
time I start my machine, as it boots I get the error message:

"Spooler SubSystem App stopped working and was closed"

This also happens when I manually restart the Print Spooler Service after
about one minute. This problem just came up one morning for no apparent
reason. The only change of which I am aware was an update from Adobe Reader.
I have tried uninstalling Adobe Reader, but it did not help the problem. I
checked the Windows update schedule, but the only updates that occurred at
the time this problem began were Defender definition updates. I also tried a
System Restore twice, but each time it failed when trying to restore the
registry.

Any help you can offer is deeply appreciated.

Try to go to start, print in the box regedit; go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE: than
SYSTEM; ControlSet001; Control; Print; Printers. In this folder you will see
your printer (HP LJ1018 or so). Remove your printer. Try to download latest
driver for your printer and install it. Do not forget to print adobe
document as an image.

Good lack

Launch the event viewer to view the application and system events. It's in
Admin tools

Open an elevated command prompt and type

net start spooler

Are there any errors or does the spooler start successfully? The spooler
does pause about a minute before loading all the driver data.

also verify that there are no pending print jobs located in
\windows\system32\spool\printers

if there are any, copy them to another location and start the spooler again.

Looks like there are MANY of us with the very same problem. I've been
researching this "little" issue and it appears to be effecting HUNDREDS
of Vista users causing tempers to flair and the demand for a Mac to be
in the increase.

I'm having the exact same problem. Spooler SubSystem App has
Stopped...blah, blah, blah.....This never happened with XP. How can
something so simple become so broken?? :sarc:

One would think that Microsoft would deeply research this very issue
and post its resolution so the fix can be spread amongst the customer
base and bring happiness once again to the user community. I for one,
would LOVE to have this little problem solved....AND....to be able to
easily share a printer with my kids new desktop machine running Vista
Home Premium. Printer Sharing was a LOT easier with XP Pro. Whatever
country got the job to write the code for the print part of Vista,
didn't get their homework done on time.
Now there's just hundreds of Vista customers that are getting fed up
with this type of problem.

I have new computers, mine and my kids PC. Dell machines, 4GB of
memory, 2.1GHz Dual Core, 500GB Raid....only difference is I'm running
Vista Business (32 bit) and they are running Vista Home Premium.

So......how about a solution to this problem? Please??

You will need to delete the drivers corrupting the spooler memory. Be sure
to launch any driver uninstall utilities as administrator. When the spooler
won't run long enough to delete the drivers, you'll need to remove the
drivers from the registry so the spooler will not load them and terminate.

http://members.shaw.ca/bsanders/CleanPrinterDrivers.htm

If you are experiencing a spooler service failure with drivers that are
included in Vista please give the driver name.

thanks

Hey Alan,

This never happened until Adobe pushed out an update to Adobe Reader
release 8. That's when things went really bad for many people.
