I have a problem in Windows, one document is overdue in the printer properties and is effectively blocking other documents waiting in the queue. Unfortunately, removing this overdue document is a very difficult thing for my system to accomplish. How to deal with this problem ??

run the command line and type cmd and your console will fire up type NET STOP spooler then go to the windows \ system32 \ spool directory throw out everything that's in there and then NET START spooler and it will be git

Right button on it and cancel printing, is it so hard to guess for yourself?

That's what I do, the document has been in delete status for two hours now

Not that simple, because most often the document stays there and doesn't want to be deleted, and that's probably what the author does. Most often in such cases it helps to restart the computer or physically disconnect the printer.

Take the printer offline, give the document deletion, bring the printer back online after deleting the document.

I did so, and the document did not want to be deleted. Resetting the computer helped.

Thanks, I was expecting such an answer.
