    Brother printer not working after Windows 10 update

    Brother printer not working after the Windows 10 update can be because of a framework difference. When the Windows system is updated, some of the framework changes do not comply with older software and drivers so it is always recommended to regularly check for application and driver updates.

    If your printer was running fine before the update and you have applied all the steps above and still your printer is not functioning. It is time to roll back the Windows update.

    Follow the steps carefully to roll back the Windows 10 update

    1. Go to the system settings of your Windows computer
    2. Click on “Update and Security”
    3. On the left hand of the window, look for “recovery” and click on it
    4. Click on “Get Started”
    5. You will see a list of previous updates
    6. Choose the recent one till when your printer was working fine
    7. Click on “Uninstall Update”
    8. The last Windows system updates will be reverted back 

    You only get a certain amount of time to roll back after upgrading, I believe after 10 days Windows will clear away the backup. The backup can also be deleted when running Disk Cleanup with the Previous Windows installation(s) option selected.
