    Turning Off Services With .reg


    I am working on a .reg file to disable all the unwanted services. I need some help though. I do not know the keys to use for the following services and would like some help adding them to my .reg located below.


    • Security Accounts
    • System Event Notification
    • Windows Firewall
    • Windows Eventlog


    And can you look over my current list and see if there is anything that 100% must not be turned off? Is there anything else you would add?

    Nice list - reminds me of the old Black Viper website. WHy not post a REG file that does this and ask for any additions/corrections?

    But I thought the Spooler was required for queuing up print jobs. So is it really safe to stop this service?

    Here's one for you to add to your list (if you can find it): Microsoft Edge Cache manager. I use Chrome exclusively - have never even started Edge. So I don't think it's cache needs to be running.

    I found this when using CCleaner - it says the cache thingy has to be stopped in order to clean up after it.

    I do not use a printer so I assume it's safe for me.

    I started out my tweaking experience back in XP using BlackViper as a reference!

    Print spooler also applies to "virtual" printing, like printing to PDF, or XPS.

    ************** JIT-Debuggen **************
    Um das JIT-Debuggen (Just-In-Time) zu aktivieren, muss in der
    Konfigurationsdatei der Anwendung oder des Computers
    (machine.config) der jitDebugging-Wert im Abschnitt system.windows.forms festgelegt werden.
    Die Anwendung muss mit aktiviertem Debuggen kompiliert werden.
    
    
    Zum Beispiel:
    
    
    <configuration>
        <system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
    </configuration>
    
    
    Wenn das JIT-Debuggen aktiviert ist, werden alle nicht behandelten
    Ausnahmen an den JIT-Debugger gesendet, der auf dem
    Computer registriert ist, und nicht in diesem Dialogfeld behandelt.
    How can I enable the taskscheduler again?

    Edit:
    This solved my problem:
    HTML Code:
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
