MicrosoftAnyone else seeing increased degraded shared Printer responsiveness and PrintSpooler server failures after installing the April's KB5036896 ?
We suspect the "NTLM traffic issue" described in https://learn.microsoft.com/en-au/windows/release-health/status-windows-10-1809-and-windows-server-2019#ntlm-traffic-issue-after-installing-the-april-2024-security-update impact is resulting in a more observable end user impacts such as the slow mapping of printers, slow processing of GPO's that map printers (resulting in slow logins). The NTLM performance degradation ultimately results in the spooler service failing and users unable to reach printers until the service is restated. ( EventID 603 - Existing printer connection because it could not read the configuration information from the registry key)
