Removing printers

I'm trying to remove redundant printers from DCAD20, but although I have removed them from Windows 10, they still appear in the DCAD printer dialogue. :?:
I'm on Windows 10, Parallels 14 on iMac.
Thanks in advance for any advice!

Hi Glenn,

Did you restart DataCAD after removing the printers? Or, maybe restart Windows?

Hi Neil,
Thanks for responding. Yes, I've turned Windows and DataCad off and on. It's not a big problem, just a bit irritating to see the redundant printers listed. If I start to lose sleep over it, maybe a reinstall of DataCad is the only solution!
Regards
Glenn

The only thing I can think of, is that OSX and Windows are each installing them? Maybe running CCleaner in Windows?

I run parallels as well, and I am going to guess that maybe under the configuration for "shared printers" you have selected "share Mac Printers with Windows" (or whatever you called your copy). I do not have that box checked, and it has helped me keep things a little cleaner.
