• Error 2: The system cannot find the specified file. Even after restarting the Printer Spooler service

  I tried all of the suggestions posted and have had no success in restarting my print spooler. Help, please.

  Original title: I tried to restart the print spooler as directed, and he returned the error 2: the system cannot find the specified file. He does that and is it fixable?

  @Winston Microsoft M committed Support Engineer 'expert '.

  I can see your response that you did take the time to reproduce the problem and then try your own ideas to check if the problem persists.

  Here is what I suggest to you, so you can learn how XP actually works:

  Start in the XP Recovery Console or Safe Mode, so Windows File Protection does not run.

  Rename your file c:\windows\system32\spoolsv.exe you can remember (such as spoolsv.bak).  Now, the file is "absent".

  Restart normally.

  Then try to start the Print Spooler Service and you will see the error.

  So why don't you follow your own advice and run SFC and troubleshooting automated (as you suggested) and check if the problem persists.

  Please report your results.

  When you see that it does help and that SFC does not replace the missing or damaged file (in the system32 folder) and that the automated troubleshooter does not help, will sing it a different song (we hope).

  Don't forget to rename your spoolsv.bak to spoolsv.exe when you're done messing around autour.

• Photosmart C4780 installation fails at the "system cannot find the file specified."

  My problem began simply with your printer, a HP Photosmart C4780, who has always had a wireless connection and would not print.  Initially, the checked network connection fine control panel of the printer.  I ran a Microsoft printer troubleshooting, which found a block in line print and authorized.  The first test page print, but did print the "internal test page.  I did not understand what it meant, so I looked for help on the HP site.

  I ran the HP print and Scan Doctorand he suggested I have reinstall the driver.  I have downloaded and saved the current HP (PS_AIO_06_C4700_USW_Full_Win_enu_140_175.exe) and then uninstalled the existing driver.  When I tried to install a new, a window pops up saying "the system cannot find the file specified," with only a single box for click that simply says "OK".  The installation went through 'examining installation options', after entering "check updates, download updates, install updates" and then it was all in "audit system", who jumped out of the window "file not found" upwards, and when I clicked 'OK', the installation window as well as the error message box simply disappeared.  Which I suppose is the path to the file is under the window, but it didn't fit so he showed not the end.  What I read was "C:\Users\... \Local\Temp\7zS588E\Setup\.\Setup\hpzpnp40...»

  I found a topic on the same printer model for the same problem in the forum, which offered this hotfix:

  You must first complete a level 3 of the software uninstallation. I've included the steps below to do this.
  
  1. press the Windows key and the letter R
  2. type %temp%, and then click OK
  3. open the 7z folder (a more recent if there are multiples)
  4 open the util folder
  5 open the folder of the ccc
  6. double-click on the Uninstall_L3
  
  Once you have completed the Uninstall_L3, delete all of the items listed in the temp folder. Note, you will not be able to remove all the elements, please ignore those that do not. Then please empty the trash and perform a clean boot. I've included the document «How to perform a boot in Windows» If your computer does not request it, restart your computer.
  
  Once your computer is back, you must reinstall the printer software. You can do this either by using the Setup CD, or by downloading the software.

  I did what was suggested, until he got to the point where it says it was the case recommend not removing any more items if I had intended on using the HP Officejet printer (Yes, I have a second HP printer connected to the network) anytime in the future.  Not really understand how it all works, I decided to stop what I was doing, so unfortunately it has not solved my problem.

  Do I need to uninstall both printers HP before I can reinstall a?  And if I do that, is there a reason that I wouldn't be able to reinstall the two printers?  Looks like I'm asking trouble.  Bottom line... I can not install the driver.

  I tried to install the full versions and the driver base and still get the same result.

  I have a HP Pavilion dv6 - 3100t for computer laptop, running Windows 7 Edition Premium, version 6.1.7601 family service pack 1 64-bit.  I have not installed new hardware or software.  This printer has always had a wireless connection.  The router I'm using is a Netgear 54Mbps WGR614 v6 (provided by my cable company) and the network includes not only my laptop and the Photosmart printer, but also desktop ASUS, HP printer, an Officejet 6300 series (used only for printing graphics and photos via a wired to the router) and a chip on Vizio TV.  I use Norton 360 first Edition and disabled the antivirus auto-protect when I downloaded and tried to install the driver.

  Help, please!  And thanks in advance for your time and your attention.

  Oh, Jamieson, it worked!  I can print again!  A massive amount of thanks and congratulations to you.

  I couldn't believe it when he actually passed the point where it normally would stop the installation, but then almost at the end, upward jumped «Fatal error during installation»  My excitement sank into a depression.  He said while the installation was not successful and he needed to collect information in order to diagnose the fault.  I looked at what has been collected, and it was more or less gobblety-* beep * for me.  There was a code of 19714722 error condition, if that means anything.

  Then he placed on my desk, the "Error of Installation HP - Windows 7.hta" file and instructed me to do away with the current window, restart, and then open the file and move forward with these guidelines.  I did and he basically had me to restart the computer once again, and then turn the printer off, unplug the printer, then unplug the router, wait 30 seconds and then plug the TAA - DAA and back in, I'm back in the business of printing.

  Thank you very much for your time and patience.

  All the best to you and yours!

• P1102w - cannot find the printer

  Hello

  I'm unable to print using a wireless connection.

  the printer is p1102w.

  operating system is MAC OS 10.10 Yosemite

  Whenever I try to print something I get "printer is not connected / cannot find the printer" message.

  I tried the solutions on your support site, but nothing helped.

  For sure, printer is connected to the same network as the computer. I see it on the print configuration page and I can connect to its IP address via a web browser (but I can't use web services).

  All software and drivers are up to date. Update Apple is nothing new to me. Niether have your site.

  I tried to move the printer closer and further away from router. No results.

  No web proxy is related to my network.

  To make this work, I have to remove the printer from my system, reinstall it using the USB cable, and then add it again via wi - fi.

  But some time the problem reappears.

  It's really frustrating. Help, please.

  Hi @xopot ,

  I see that you have problems printing via wireless network. I would like to help you today.

  Since you can access the printer embedded Web server, the printer would have a valid IP address. Most likely, it has something to do with the software that the printer uses.

  Fix permissions of the drive on the Mac:

  Close all applications.

  In the Apple menu, click OK, click Applications, and then click utilities.

  Double-click disk utility.

  Highlight your hard drive / partition on the left.

  Click on check and then repair disk permissions.

  Restart the computer...

  Reset the printing system:

  Note: This will remove all printers in the print and Fax/Scan, any printer deleted can be re-added later by clicking the sign plus (+) symbol.

  Click on the Apple icon and then click on System Preferences.

  Click on Printers & Scanners.

  Make a right click (or Ctrl + click) in the left white side panel, and then click Reset printing system.

  Click OK to confirm the reset.

  Type the name and the correct password.

  Click OK to reset the printing system.

  Then click on the sign to add the driver, highlight the printer +. (you may need to click the drop down menu to select the name of the printer) Then click the Add button.

  

  

  Configure a static IP address for the printer.

  The printer is not found during Installation wireless.

  Do not take into account the title. Select the Solution 4: assign your printer a static IP address.

  If you need help, let me know.

  Have a great day!
  Thank you.

• LaserJet MFP M125nw Pro: #2 cannot install LaserJet MFP M125nw Pro because of the error "the system cannot find the file specified."

  Hello

  I struggled in the last 2 days to install my new all in one Pro LaserJet MFP M125nw. I tried almost all the stuff Google and this community offered under the heading "the system cannot find specified file", without success. My frustration is huge because I'm not really a novice when it comes to solve similar problems.

  Here is what I do and what is happening:

  I downloaded the latest version of the complete software for XP HP offers through their Web site. I tried to install the drivers through the install wizzard, then manually (used for the files in the folder 7ZXXX in the directrory temp) but no matter what I do, I get the same error again and again. In fact XP recognizes the printer and the scanner, it installs even drivers for the scanner and it works but after maybe 50 attempts in different ways, XP couldn't install the printer driver.

  Here are a few screenshots:

  Hey all,.

  I have a user running windows Xp Professional with service pack 3. The user gets the following error message when it connects to the computer every morning. "Error: could not load file or assembly ' WMIControlLibrary, Version = 1.0.0.0, Culture = neutral, PublicKeyToken = null ' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the specified file. The only thing that seems to not work is calendar Office Print Wizard. I deleted this file and the problem persists. Also, I have not found anything in the case where the viewer that relates to this error. The only mistake I found was an issue with the .net framework. I removed all the facilities framework and their updates. Restarted the computer and ther error disappeared and was replaced by errors in programs that require this file to work. I reinstalled .net framework 2 and returns the error. I left all the machine off separation executives. I did a repair on the .net framework without change. I'm not quite sure that the .net framework is the problem though. I guess that if just. At this point I don't know where to go from here how to solve this problem. Anyone got ideas?

• System cannot find the specified file "[path]" \hpzshl.ice_suffix.. ". exe"on Windows 8.1

  I've updated my OS to Windows 7 64-bit edition of Windows 8.1 pro 64-bit, and when you try to reinstall the software and the driver for my printer HP Officejet J4580 all-in-one I get all sorts of errors. It worked perfectly on Windows 7.

  I get the most common error is: System cannot find the specified file "[path]" \hpzshl.ice_suffix.. ". exe', as well as the facility is abandoned.

  I tried a lot of solutions from the HP Web site and these forums, but my problem is still there.

  I already tried the long solution presented here:

  and

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c04206080

  I even found the directory where installation has been decompressed and copied to the desktop, but the error persists.

  I need the complete software because I need to use my printer Officejet scanner, so I can't just simply print drivers.

  I need desperate help on getting this new work.

  Specifications of the computer:

  CPU: Intel Core i7 - 4820 K Quad-Core 3.70 GHz 10 MB Intel Smart Cache LGA2011

  Printer: HP Officejet J4580 all-in-one; connected via USB

  OS: 8.1 Pro 64 bit Windows

  GPU: AMD Radeon R9 200 series

  I finally solved it by myself after many hours of pain.

  I clean any installation of HP from my computer using the HP Officejet software and driver removal utility:

  http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=MP-110151-1&cc=us&DLC=en&LC=en&OS=4158&product=3645100&sw_lang=

  After the computer restarts, I moved on the desktop, the installation directory unpacked that HP printer install wizard for Windows had previously downloaded and launched.

  I deleted all files in the directory %Temp%.

  I disabled McAfee antivirus real time and Windows Deffender analysis.

  I ran the setup.exe in the installation directory in my office.

  The installation is smoothly and completed. I have already tested the printer and all features function normally.

  I hope these steps help someone with similar problems to get the software installed.

• Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error trying to install it. The system cannot find the specified file.

  Arrrrgh!  Had a terrible time trying to get the scanner function works on my Epson Stylus CX7000F.

  I get the too common but seemingly irreparable "Windows has encountered a problem installing the software driver for your device...". Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error trying to intall it. The system cannot find the file specified. "

  The job of printer/copier/fax end but not go on the scanner.

  I tried the 'fixes' to epson.com repeatedly with no luck.  This includes their reccomendation uninstall/install several times, trying even to this process in safe mode and clean boot the.

  I ran the program to 'fix' Microsoft ATS with no luck.  It has detected the error and said that the problem has been resolved, but guess what?  No, it isn't.

  I clicked on install update driver/driver from Device Manager.

  I tried the work around, eliminating the "LowerFilters" of the registry.  Guess what?  You have it, no luck.

  So, before I go and buy a new printer/scanner, with no guarantee that they will work.  Does anyone have another suggestion?

  I am running Vista, 32-bit.

  You can also try and replace or install the ntprint.inf file.

  I had a similar problem on a Windows 7 PC and noticed that this file was not present.  I just copied the file from a different PC Win7.  The printer, I tried to install was a Brother MFC-J410w.

  Hello amywatsand welcome to the Forums of HP, I hope you enjoy your experience!

  I see your are your printer installation issues.  I would like to help.

  Once it is uninstalled, I suggest you put your system in clean boot mode in the configuration of Microsoft.  You can do this by following this document: How to perform a clean boot in Windows.

  Once the computer is in clean boot mode, I would suggest to reinstall the HP printer install wizard for Windows.

  mrsjeffyg, I recommend that you completely uninstall the printer from the computer. Make sure that all copies of the printer and the associated files are removed from programs and features, the Manager of devices, and the devices and printers. If you are connected with a USB cable, make sure that the cable is removed from the printer for the duration of the present.

  Click START and type "%temp%" and press ENTER. This will open the temporary folder, and I want that you delete all the files that you can here. Some will not be able to be deleted, so ignore these files.

  Restart your computer.

  Follow this link here and reinstall it from the Full_Feature Driver and software.
