Printers Change After WIN10 Update?

Post by GUTHTIRE »

After applying Windows Updates we've notice the printer assignment change in ShopKey on all workstations. This has happened on multiple occasions after applying Windows updates. We are running version 7.0.3 on Windows 10.

Have you spoken to tech support about this yet? I'm on 7 and 8 and have had no occurrences like this. Possibly a Windows 10 thing.

Thanks for the tip. I knew Microsoft made the change for Windows 10 but didn't put the two together...the strange part about it was that it was printing across our network. I've made the change in Windows to turn off last used and will monitor for future Windows updates. Thanks again!
