Since I inadvertently let my system update to 22H2 my system “loses” my Brother laser printer driver (Brother HL-2270DW) and I have to uninstall then reinstall the driver. Occasionally my PC cannot even find the driver to uninstall but I use the Brother uninstall app anyway and then reinstall (after a chkdsk /f). Am I alone with this problem? David

Patch reliability is unclear. Unless you have an immediate, pressing need to install a specific patch, don't do it. |
