How do I remove a printer for windows 10 registry
Hi Guys, Please stay safe during this Virus outbreak.
I'm the owner and sole users of this PC and setup with Administrative Rights in settings.
I've just installed a new printer on my PC HP 5200 series on Windows 10 1909. It's connected currently on USB cable. I thought I removed my older HP 4635 but it was setup as a WiFi network printer. Evidently I deleted it properly, and I can still see it if I go to Control Panel>Programs and Features, so I tried to delete the file there. But I get an error saying I done have Administrative rights.
Note: I can see the new printer, but if I click on it, it doesn't show the menu to set the default...
Only a menu to open and a few other items.
To see if I could fix this I looked at the system registry see screen shot.
How do I go about deleting and old printer from the system registry? Can I clear any default while in there?
Do I need to delete data from other sections of the registry?
