I am having this problem where I go to add a printer on server and I get error "This operation requires an interactive window station." This shows up after I try to add the driver. Does anyone have a clue on why this comes up? Thanks
I have permissions for the print driver folders. (C:\Windows\system32\drivers
C:\Windows\system32\DriverStore
C:\Windows\system32\DRVSTORE
C:\Windows\system32\Spooler)
I followed this https://www.thewindowsclub.com/this-operation-requires-an-interactive-window-station as well, still no luck.
