Default Cannot create a file when that file already exists


This has happened to 2 computers in our office this week. The first one
I tried to uninstall all of the printers on and the drivers and that
didn't work so I ended up reimaging the whole thing. For the second PC
I had an idea...if the only way to fix this was to redo the whole
drivers folder, why can't I copy that folder from a PC that works to
that PC? Obviously you have to be networked to do this. I rebooted
the bad one and left it at the login screen and then went into it from
my PC and copied the folder C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers from my
PC to that one. It worked!
