SO FRUSTRATED! [View all]

MS, in their wisdom, removed or hid the ability to print WORD docs from file explorer in their right click menu. I can print PDFs, but not WORD docs (go figure).

I installed a print icon some time ago on the ribbon, but it is grayed out - doesn't work.

When I right click a share command comes up then prompts me to make sure other device has nearby sharing turned on in "action center" (WTF??). I have a wireless HP printer. Do I need to change a setting on it?

Thank you!!
