You will have no problem disabling the "print spooler" services (if you are
like I am and you don't print often). I re-enable/re-disable on the fly.

For details, see <https://i.postimg.cc/kgMz8Kh1/printspooler.jpg>
 *Re-enabling unneeded services in Windows (until they are needed)*
 <https://www.novabbs.com/computers/article-flat.php?id=84268&group=alt.comp.os.windows-10#84268>

The script in that thread which re-enables & re-disables the "Print
Spooler" service was kindly written by Zaidy, Andy Burns & Vanguard & me.

The point of bringing that script up here is not only that it's safe to
disable many services - but - you may need to re-enable them on the fly.
