      OK. Sorry for not being clear enough. How does the error manifest itself? What problems were occurring that prompted an investigation into this?

      What happens is your printers will have a black clock next to them. You'll lose the ability to right-click them or access the print server settings. You can't install new printers or remove printers already installed. The status of the printer will be "device setup in process" infinitely. This is due to it trying to pull the icons for the printers from an MS service that is not functional.

        Oh, wow. That would suck. I wonder if this is already happening here and I haven't heard about it yet.

          Yeah it legit ruined my weekend trying to figure it out. We got hit with ransomware and our group policy was affected so I thought it was related. Just really really bad luck.

            Yeah, bad timing for sure. So this affects Windows 10 with shared printers?

              Yes, the printer will act like it's installing - and just stall there.

                    So, this is caused by cert expiration/url issues and not a windows update?
