A lot of services are required for Windows to work properly, but others are either less useful or entirely useless. <br /> <br /> ==Open Windows Services List==<br /> To open the Windows services list:<br /> *Click Start<br /> *In the search bar type &quot;services.msc&quot;<br /> *There should be 1 result, right click and &quot;Run as Administrator&quot;<br /> <br /> <br /> ==When Services Start==<br /> In the new Window is a list of the services that run with Windows. Sort the list by clicking the &quot;Startup Type&quot; column. Now you can see which services run and when they run.<br /> <br /> There are 4 ways services start themselves<br /> *Automatic - Services that always run<br /> *Automatic (Delayed Start) - Services that run a few minutes after startup<br /> *Manual - Services that run only when called<br /> *Disabled - Services that will not run at all<br /> <br /> <br /> ==Disable Services==<br /> Windows comes with most features and services enabled to provide the user with a lot of functionality. Rarely will any user need or want them all, so we can disable the ones we do not need.<br /> <br /> &#039;&#039;&#039;Disable services at your own risk&#039;&#039;&#039;<br /> <br /> Here is a list of services you do not need to have a functioning computer. Below will be a list of services and the feature lost as well as the general speed increase. You can disable everything on this list for full speed if you choose. <br /> <br /> *Themes<br /> **You lose pretty window borders, rounded corners, and colored start bar<br /> **Speed: 20% faster interaction with Windows<br /> *Security Center<br /> **You lose annoying messages saying you have no antivirus<br /> **Speed: Slight increase, less popups<br /> *Windows Defender<br /> **You lose some minor malware/virus protection<br /> **Speed: Slight increase, less popups<br /> *Windows Search<br /> **You no longer have files show in the Start search bar<br /> **Speed: Slight increase, also reduces load on hard drive<br /> <br /> <br /> *[http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/10-things/10-plus-windows-7-services-you-may-not-need/#. 10+ Windows 7 services you may not need]<br /> *</div>
