Question : Access is denied, unable to remove device when trying to delete a printer.
Okay. This is a pretty good one. I have a user that I have made an admin on his machine. He is running a 64 bit version of Windows 7. I have a program that runs a batch file that does tons of things upon login, so it is possible that a registy key was set to deny printer removal, but I set something up to allow printer removal (I thought). When I right-click on any printer I wish to remove, I get a message that says "Access is denied, unable to remove device". What can I do in this case? I hvae several printers that say (redirected 2) after them, so if course they are undesirable. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much.
Answer : Access is denied, unable to remove device when trying to delete a printer.
This has been resolved. Apparently this has something to do with being RDP'd in to this machine. I log in locally as the same user and the printers do now show up.
