I have a shared USB printer set up from my pc. I created an account named Print some time ago. It seems after a few months that account gets shut down. Im the only one using my pc, its not on a domain. Are Microsoft updates disabling the account? Also the printer share is broken as of 10-24-21. I am able to use the print account to connect, after enabling it, but any attempt to connect to the printer gives an error "The credentials provided don't have sufficient access to the shared printer" and an error message about conflicting credentials. I get theses errors on multiple windows 10 pcs. This setup worked a month ago. Ive tried enabling the Admin account and connecting same error.
I also shared the printer from another windows 10 pc i have. From my windows 10 test machine I tried to connect, it gave the same error. So im thinking its a Microsoft eff up.
Does any one have any ideas?
