Support Windows Protected Print Mode

Post by wdw »

The current print driver does not support Windows Protected Print Mode, and the print queue will be removed when turning it on.

Sorry for the late reply.

After "Windows protected print mode" is enabled, "PDF-XChange Standard" printer is being uninstalled.

Hello, wdw

Thank you for that, my Win11 VM's are all offline for server maintenance during the holiday, so I cannot test this myself just yet (my local PC is still win10 atm, which lacks this feature). However, I have forwarded this report to the Dev team for review and will be sure to let you know when we hear back from them about it.

Kind regards,
