services.msc print spooler

[alyoob]

how do I get a specific service to run in safe mode so i can install a program? The service is print spooler.

[SuperDave]

Why do you want to install a program in Safe Mode? Print spooler should not affect your installation.

[alyoob]

the error says os not supported but i continued with installation.  then the error attatched says start the print spooler service which i cannot in safe mode. do you know how to do so in safe mode. fix does not work.

Answer Dave's question...why are you installing in safemode ? ?

[alyoob]

Because i was not able to install the program in normal mode.thought that safe mode would work. If the print spooler error did not show up then the program would have installed.

[SuperDave]

Right click on My Computer, select Manage and double click on Services. Find Print Spooler and start the service. It should be set to start automatically.

You do realise it's a printer app your trying to install here...correct ? ?

[alyoob]

yes

Then i give up...

When a program does a crash, it may throw a random error message.
It might help if the OP would specify exactly what program caused the error
I had a similar bogus print spool error that had almost nothing to do with the printer. It may be a third party app that found some wired compatibility thing that the publisher did not starch.
Just trying to help.
