Vista set default printer registry




















Is this limited to Server ? My limited understanding was that the new group policy extensions were only available on the newer OS? I'm currently running Win2k3 servers and Vista clients and the Group Policy Preferences are available and working.

I have used them as above to deploy printers and also map network drives to various OUs users and computers. Said more simply: Can I access these same preferences from Server 2k3 add and edit them Thanks for your help!

You extend the schema on your Server 2k3 to include the preferences etc for Server , BUT you can only access add and edit these from Vista or Server Yeah thanks, that confirmed my suspicions This is one of the coolest and most useful feature with the new GPO. This works also for other things like drive mappings. This sure beats fiddling around with login scripts and WMI filters.

We starting to move a large portion of our legacy KIX scripts into GPO and up to now have not come any real limitations. We run a huge number of Windows XP with some Windows 7 clients for flavour. Saved me a lot of time upgrading all my XP clients. This is a great tool, only issue I am running into is that on PCs where the printers were manually added, I now have doubles.

It seems you can only set the default when configuring per user and not per computer. I had difficulties with this when I moved print servers. The new mappings would not apply unless I used Replace instead of Update. Not sure if it is just Replace, but if I set a default printer in GPO with Replace the user's printer would revert to the default whenever Group Policy refresh occurred.

For see the user SID you could run in a command line the command " wmic useraccount get name,sid" - Do a Right click on the Windows key and select Permissions. Thursday, September 6, AM. Dear Net Vicious, this solved my problem, probably in this case was virus. Monday, January 7, PM. NetVicious, this worked great, thanks a lot. I also had an episode with some malware. I doubt I would have ever checked registry permissions. Microsoft needs to put that in their Printer FixIt. Tuesday, March 5, PM.

Now, you may recall that DbgPrintEx allows you to control the conditions under which messages will be sent to the kernel debugger by filtering messages via a component name and level in the function call and an associated filter mask in either the registry or in memory.

How to fix it? Two choices:. Or try setting the mask to 0xF so you get all output. When setting up a printer in Windows 10, the user may want to set it as a default. Without your printer set as default, you will have to change the printer every time you want to print something. There is no specific and exact explanation of what causes these errors to appear.

Luckily for all of us, they are somewhat random and do not pop frequently. There is no need to change the default printer in Windows 10 unless you swap a printer or reinstall Windows. In other words, you need to deal with the problem only once. That is the kind of rare issue where you almost should not do anything. In Windows 10 November Update, Microsoft changed the way Windows 10 manages the default printers.
