  1. Why is Windows enabling services that I have disabled?


    Dear Community, I am a developer and a systems engineer and I am running into situations that are unacceptable and is costing me valuable time to try and undo. It is critical that I can control my systems in certain states depending on current tasks. However Windows 11 is taking control of my machines and reenabling services that I have disabled and installing updates automatically without consent. I can't keep restoring backups and uninstalling updates to only to have it all changed when I'm sleeping. It's beginning to feel like a google device doing what ever it wants. This wasn't an iss

    Disable Action Center in Windows 7?

    Unfortunately that doesn't disable Action Center, all it does it cause Acution Center to bitch about the Security Center service not running.

    Action Center seems to be a different beast from Security Center...

    And telling it to not display any messages gets it out of the way, the same way disabling the icon in the suggestions above does, but Action Center is still enabled and running.

    How to turn windows firewall service off permanently?

    When I disable the firewall service then it stays disabled. If this is different on your machine then you must have some agent that keeps re-enabling it. You now need to find this agent. Here are a few steps you need to take:

    • Run services.msc and disable the service. Close services.msc, then re-open it 5 minutes later. Is the service enabled or disabled?
    • Reboot the machine into Safe Mode with Shift+Restart. Is the service enabled or disabled?
