Hi,
Recently i'm facing a issue with windows 7, When i turn on the machine there is a error massage that says "The program can't start because WINSPOOL.DRV is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this program". What is the cause of this issue & how to solve it? Someone please help me with this issue.
Thank you.

Enter'

Reboot and test.

Step 2

- Click 'Start' > Type cmd in the search field > Right-click the command prompt at the top of the list and select 'Run as Administrator'
- Inside the command prompt, type sfc /scannow > Press 'Enter'
- Reboot and boot back into safe-mode.
- Click 'Start' > Type cmd in the search field > Right-click the command prompt at the top of the list and select 'Run as Administrator'
- Type Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
- Reboot and boot back into safe-mode.
- Click 'Start' > Type cmd in the search field > Right-click the command prompt at the top of the list and select 'Run as Administrator'
- Inside the command prompt, type sfc /scannow > Press 'Enter'
- Error "Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them" should now be gone.

Thanks for your help and time Britec & GuiltySpark...
Didn't really had much time to test with the method you guys provide. I Have already solved the problem by recloning the machine & restoring backup.
Thanks once again guys for the support...
