print spooler

I may have accidentally deleted the spooler server programs after an Adware
Invasion. How do I re install them. Right now I can't do any thing because
the computer do not see my printer. I can not reinstall because the spooler
is not working!
Help please

Re: print spooler

If you deleted the print spooler, then the only method of recovery is a new
install.

Re: print spooler

This is a Vista install. Will the new install delete data? It was an oem
install on a Gateway PC?
Thanks

Re: print spooler

I don't believe there is a Repair Option in Vista. Can you use System
Restore to go back?
