    cheers for the reply
    problem is, MS impress to pdf is installed, only the are no printers to choose, the menu is just empty
    if i try to search for a printer, the merely selection is to add a physical printer, no option to add a virtual pdf printer

    nitro pdf should work on windows 10, so it seems to be a problems/trouble with windows 10 (nothing new, information technology has way too many bugs)
    i searched a lot already, but don’t seem to exist able to solve this

    thanks

    MS Impress to PDF does not go to a physical printer. The “print” dialog prompts for where yous want to save the PDF document. Save it anywhere yous choose. It tin can be printed after, if you wish.

    CTRL + P will give you this dialog.

    Print to pdf and others should be manageable here.. Do you have whatever Group policies enabled? Enterprise environment?

    In GPedit cheque:

    Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\Security Options

    if you have some security options enabled.

    Otherwise, In identify repair should fix this:
