How to fix Microsoft Print to PDF Not Saving Files. So I have Windows 10 Pro and am trying to print to pdf using the built in Microsoft PDF Printer. Up until now, I have had no issue. Now, when I try to print to PDF, the file is not saved and I do not get an error message. CutePDF has no issues with file creation/saving. I have tried to remove the printer and re add the printer. This corrected the issue for about 5 minutes and then the problem returned. Does anyone have any suggestions? If the recommendation it to stick with using CutePDF, I am fine with that. Just wondering if others have had similar issues using Microsoft Print to PDF, and if so, how the issue was resolved. Thanks!
