{"post":{"id":728,"title":"Microsoft says its November security updates cause printing issues — uninstall the update or wait for a fix?","body":"Microsoft confirmed the November security updates are causing printing problems for some users. My home office printer stopped working right after the update installed, and I have invoices to print this week. Uninstalling a security update feels like trading one problem for a worse one, but waiting on Microsoft with no timeline is not great either. Has anyone hit this and found a workaround that actually works, or did you just roll back the update?","community":"Software","score":3,"answer_count":1,"standing":{"kind":"leading","answer_votes":1,"leading":{"id":920,"name":"Wait, and print from your phone in the meantime","score":1},"runner_up":null},"author":{"username":"priyaq","verified":false},"voted":false,"vote":0,"created_at":"2026-11-13T19:15:12.104Z","url":"https://settd.com/p/728","thumbnail":null},"comments":[{"id":920,"name":"Wait, and print from your phone in the meantime","body":"Do not uninstall a security update to fix a printer. Most of these printing bugs get a patch within a week, and your phone or a USB stick to a library printer covers invoices until then. Rolling back security for convenience is how you end up with a much bigger bill.","score":1,"rank_score":6,"author":{"username":"frugaljo","verified":true},"voted":false,"vote":0,"created_at":"2026-11-13T19:21:09.090Z"}],"pagination":{"limit":50,"offset":0,"has_more":false,"next_offset":null}}
