    KB4598242 causes a severe issue with Xbox Controllers over USB: it results in a USB Device not recognized error and disconnects any other USB devices including mouse and keyboard until you unplug the problem device and restart the system.

    Last night my PC installed KB4598242

    Today none of my printers work.

    Tried the printer troubleshooter. Tried reinstalling printers. Tried restarting the spooler. Tried cacls utility on PRINTERS in system32\spool. Nothing.

    In the end I finally realized KB4598242 had been installed at 3 o'clock in the morning. Removed it and the printers started working.

    Hello mrdbeta, the firmware and driver on Dell website are very old. I have the last firmware 7.15 and it works fine with the 7.14 driver.

    The problem is the 7.15 driver. I could try to install it again, but I think that it will fails.

    Thanks, Marco
