Net stop spooler системная ошибка 5

System error 5: Access is denied is an error message that prevents users from installing some software. It usually pops up due to a lack of account permissions. Running a command on Windows where you need administrative rights will probably give rise to System Error 5. 

This error can be quite annoying, especially if you need to run a certain command. This article will give you different ways to fix System error 5 on your Windows 10, 8, 7, and Vista.

What Is The “System Error 5 Has Occurred Access Is Denied” Error?

System error 5 is an error access denied code which means that your access is denied because you don’t have the required privileges to run a certain command. For example, when you try to run a command which is supposed to stop the print spooler, you will get an error message. 

Why Causes The “System 5 Error Has Occurred” Message?

1. Time Synchronization Problem

If your PC’s time has been set up wrongly, that can lead to the System 5 error. You can resolve it by enabling the time sync feature on the PC to ensure your system’s time is always running right. In addition to that, your system should have the correct time zone as per the region you live in.

1. Account You Are Trying To Access Is Disabled or Doesn’t Exist On The Domain

If the account on your PC has been disabled or doesn’t exist in the specific domain name, you can get System error 5 . Ensure that the account you wish to access exists and is enabled on your domain. You might use the “netdom” command-line utility on the PC.

1. Missing Permission To Access Remote Computer

If you are attempting to access a remote computer, make sure you have the required permissions. Your PC might throw the system error 5 if any required permission is missing. You won’t have any problems with all the permissions required from the remote computer.

1. Command Requires Elevated System Privileges

Some commands like the ones that manage different Windows services like net use, net start, etc. require special privileges to be executed. For example, the print spooler service is a core Windows service that needs to run always. So, if you need to stop it for some reason, you will need elevated system privileges to execute it. Note that logged in as an Administrator won’t be enough in this case. 

Users who try to run the command to stop the print spooler service usually get the System error 5 messages. 

Fixing the “System error 5 has occurred” requires you to open the elevated command prompt window and run the command again. This will give you proper administrator privileges to run the commands you are getting stuck with.

Итак, опишем проблему с сервисом печати (print spooler)  на сервере, в крупной фирме, где есть много разномастных принтеров, подключенных в терминальном режиме.

0. Суть ошибки

Эта проблема появляется в остановке сервиса печати при работе в терминале с удаленного офиса. Ошибка происходит в терминале и принтер перестает принимать документы на печать, при чем на сервере появляется «клон» принтера, и на нем начитается выстраиваться очередь на печать, а фактически печать документов не происходит.

1. Причины ошибки

Происходит ошибка в очереди печати, или если возникла ошибка при печати на принтере, либо при отмене какого-нибудь документа, либо после небольшого разрыва связи, либо при отправке документов одновременно несколькими пользователями на печать. Тогда начинается паника в офисе, а если еще и нужно срочно распечатать какой-нибудь отчет, начинаются звонки сисадминам, с криками: «СПАСИТЕ!!!ПОМОГИТЕ!!!! НЕВОЗМОЖНО РАБОТАТЬ!!!! ДА КОГДА ЖЕ ЭТО ВСЕ ПРЕКРАТИТСЯ!!!!» —  и т. д. Вот сейчас мы и опишем, как можно исправить данную неприятность в операционных системах семейства Windows.

2. Решение

Решается данная проблема перезапуском сервера печати, т. е. службы prints pooler. (Подробно о службе prints pooler можно прочитать вот здесь). Чтоб перезапустить данную службу (как и любую другую) необходимо выполнить 2 команды:

net stop spooler
net start spooler

Если операцию приходится выполнять периодически, удобнее создать «костыль» в виде файла c расширением «.bat», проще говоря «батника».

Откроем простой блокнот (удобнее всего использовать программу NotePad++) и напишем там 2 вышеназванные строчки. Сохраним этот файл, поставив расширение .bat вместо .txt, назвав его «перезапуск службы печати» или как нибудь еще, как удобнее. При запуске этого файла будет происходить перезапуск службы печати.

На скриншоте выше добавлен оператор pause в конце что бы показать работу bat-файла.

The “System Error 5 Has Occurred. Access Is Denied” error message may appear when you try to run certain commands in a Command Prompt window.

This means that the command required elevated privileges to run – to fix it you must open Command Prompt with elevated (administrator) system privileges.

Note that the error occurs even if you are logged into Windows with an Administrator (rather than a Standard) user account.

Keep reading for an explanation of why it happens, or see the Contents below to skip straight to a quick fix for each version of Windows.

What Is “System Error 5”?

Microsoft describe ‘System error 5’ as an ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED code – basically access is denied because you don’t have sufficient system privileges to run the command.

The example below shows the error message appearing when I try running a command to stop the print spooler (part of my article on fixing a document stuck in the print queue)

Why Does It Occur?

In this example, the print spooler is a core Windows service that should normally run all the time. So, for security reasons, stopping that service requires elevated system privileges – it is not enough to just be logged in as an Administrator.

So if you try to run that command without these privileges, you will get the System error 5 message.

High elevated privileges are required to run many other unrestricted or system-wide commands in a Command Prompt window – especially commands that manage Windows services (e.g. net start and net stop) or that manage file sharing (e.g. net use).

To fix a ‘System Error 5 Has Occurred’ message, you need to open an elevated Command Prompt window and then run the command again. This should provide sufficient administrator privileges to run the command successfully.

Follow the 2 steps below for Windows 10, Windows 8, Windows 7 or Vista.
