Printmanagement.msc

Question

I have a Windows 10 Enterprise, version 2004 (19041.630) Dell laptop. Why is printmanagement.msc not available? I have another Dell laptop with 

Windows 10 Enterprise, version 1909 with no issues. I have several other laptops with win 10 enterprise, v2004 with the same issue. 

The snap in is not available and when using Run it does not load.

How do I get the snap in back? Why is printmanagement.msc not available?

Thanks

Answer 1

I solved my own problem since optional features are not available (maybe due to GPO settings)

In elevated command prompt run:

DISM /online /add-capability /CapabilityName:Print.Management.Console~~~~0.0.1.0

Open back up MMC.EXE and verify Print Management is present.

Pro Tip: "DISM /online /get-capabilities" lists more options. Find the one you need and use the DISM /online /add-capability /CapabilityName command

Answer 2

Print Management is considered an optional feature and you may need to enable it. Go to Start > Settings > Apps > Optional features > Add a feature > select Print Management Console.

Answer 3

Try to add it using Powershell. To do this, right-click on the Start menu > select Windows PowerShell (Admin) > paste this command and press Enter: Dism /Online /Add-Capability /CapabilityName:Print.Management.Console~~~~0.0.1.0

Answer 4

I'm not interested in re-installing Windows. Any one else?

Answer 5

Guaranteed fix? Where is this documented? I don't want to install a new version. I would rather revert back to 1909..
