Downgrading to version 1.84.8342.42248 resolves the issue, however, the connector automatically updates to the latest version the next day. Anyone know how to stop Connector from upgrading itself?

    Hello there,

    If this caused by an update we must wait till an hotfix or workaround is officially released by Microsoft.

    The Feedback Hub app lets you tell Microsoft about any problems you run into while using Windows . You can also send suggestions to help us improve your Windows experience.

    Send feedback to Microsoft with the Feedback Hub app https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/send-feedback-to-microsoft-with-the-feedback-hub-app-f59187f8-8739-22d6-ba93-f66612949332

    Meanwhile you can try the below troubleshooting steps

    Run services.msc to open the Open Services Manager and check if the Spooler Service is running. If not, Start it. If it is running, Restart the Windows Service. If you face issues with the Service, run the Print Spooler Cleanup Diagnostic from Microsoft. It removes non-Microsoft print processors and monitors.
