Get rid of the new Windows-controlled default printer setup

article #1225, updated 2070 days ago

Windows 10 has some sort of automatic thing built in which is pretended to read our minds and decide for us which of our printers should be the default at any time. Needless to say this makes no sense at all, and causes lots of user frustration. To turn this off with Group Policy, browse to:

User Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Control Panel -> Printers

and set “Turn off Windows default printer management” to Enabled.
