Cannot remove the document from the queue

I deleted a print job, but I can't get out of the queue. I can't print anything now. How can I get rid of this document so I can use my printer?

To clear the print queue, stop the print spooler service and delete all the pending print files.
    
You cannot delete all print jobs in the queue so that the Print Spooler Service is running.
       
To stop the Print Spooler Service, click Start, run and enter in the box:
        
services.msc
        
Click OK to open the Services Applet.
        
Locate the Print Spooler Service, right click and choose 'Properties' and then click on the "Stop" button to stop the Print Spooler Service is running.
    
The option "Startup Type" of Service properties print spooler is usually set to "Automatic" (which is now a good time to check it out).
    
If the "Startup type" is not set to "Automatic", set the "Startup type" to "Automatic" If that is your desire (which now is the time to check it out).

Do not try to start or restart the Print Spooler Service again...
    
Then, delete all updates pending upward and forward to printing from XP.  If they do not print before, you will need to send the to the printer again.
    
Using Windows Explorer, navigate to the following folder (assuming that Windows is installed on your C drive):
    
C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\PRINTERS
        
Delete all the print jobs in queue (select and delete all the files) in the folder if the folder is without waiting for print jobs.  The folder must be empty when you are finished.
        
Reboot your system and check the Print Spooler Service again to make sure the Print Spooler Service restarts automatically restart (given that the startup type is set to automatic).
    
After the reboot, check again the spooler service for printing and the 'Status' column for the print spooler must be read "started."

Submit new failure of print jobs.

  • Windows 7, cannot remove the burn files after back to the top

    I have a 64 bit Windows 7 laptop. A year ago I started a return upwards to put on a disc. The backup failed at the time because I ran out of records to put on (had no idea that it would take as much!).

    Since then I tried to delete these temporary burn files from the F drive, but every time I click on the option, it breaks down and wrote files are used by another program. I went through and individually deleted most of them, but I still have a few huge to get the judgment and cannot remove the program (86), or on the desktop to the top, mean that they are used by another program.

    I burned a CD of all these left during the backup of files and that worked, but the files are still sitting in my drive F, I still can't delete the temporary versions... its taking a lot of space and I got the bsod a couple of times.

    I also tried folder in the start menu and delete the temporary files in this way, but it did not result in the F drive.

    I tried to rename the temporary files so that I could remove them too, but not to chance it.

    I have disc clean up all the time, this doesn't always help with the F drive.

    Your opinion would be appreciated!

    Someone has put a policy on your machine to enforce some rules for passwords. Best is to ask that person to change these rules for you. Alternatively, you can run gpedit.msc, then follow this path to edit yourself: Local computer policy / Computer Configuration / Windows settings / security settings / account policy / password policy.

    Note also that:
    -You cannot delete the built-in Administrator account.
    -Administrator with a blank password accounts is a big security risk.

    Original title: icons in the Start Menu;. Cannot delete the program start menu icon to remove/uninstall, need help?

    S pie Menu icons; Ghost of icons

    I deleted a program and uninstalled completely, but the program icon always appears in the start menu.  I was not able to remove the icon. Right-clicking on the icon simply freezes the start menu for several minutes. I was able to remove from the desktop.

    I tried the Program Data > Microsoft > Windows > Start Menu > programs > but the icon.

    I had this problem before, but I just do not remember how I fixed it. Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi Kevin, thanks for responding.

    The program was the Vuze, and I managed to get rid of the icon.  By a right click and do not move the mouse and wait 5 minutes eventualy box popped up and I was able to remove the icon from the start menu.

    The solution was a lot of patience.

    Please help us well!

  • Cannot remove the shortcut from the App World for blackBerry Smartphones

    I have a Blackberry Curve 8330 and install Blackberry App World yesterday. I decided to remove it, so I went to the Options > Advanced Options > Applications, highlighted and selected delete. Then I rebooted my Blackberry as he asked, saying that the app would disappear. The app has been removed from my list of requests under the Options menu, but again, the shortcut is displayed on my desk and takes me to the screen "Download App World" when I click on it.

    I can't figure out how to remove the shortcut because it is more listed in my applications. What I just hide or y at - there a way to remove it? Any ideas?

    Thanks in advance!

    What is left is just a shortcut to the installation link for AppWorld.
