Windows 10: How do I enable certain services?

So there are some services in my computer that are currently disabled and cause some apps to not function. I dont know how or why is this like it is but okay.

Now, how do I enable the services? I did go to properties but the box is absolutely grayed out meaning i cannot do anything with it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Redirect certain webpages to kittens

Don't know about the kitten thing, but I do know that blocking "all NSFW" websites is gonna require a service/software that is updated regularly. This can either be done with software or with a router that supports such a feature, since the list of NSFW websites is constantly changing. Suggest you start with the option for family friendly surfing that is included as part of Windows Live Essentials.

Updated to windows 10 - Certain Errors - Need Help.

Hi,



Thank you for your reply. I apologize for the delay.



I suggest you to create a new power plan and check if it helps. You may follow the steps in the article below.

Note: Applies to Windows 10 also.



This issue might also occur due to conflict of third party apps, I suggest you follow the below steps and check.

Check in “clean boot” state, to check if any third party application is causing the issue. Follow these steps to start the computer in clean boot.

Step A:

a) Press the ‘Windows + R’ key on the keyboard.

b) In the ‘Run’ windows type
’MSCONFIG’ and click ‘Ok’.

c) Click the ‘Boot’ tab and uncheck
‘Safe Boot’ option.

d) On the ‘General’ tab, click to select the option
‘Selective startup’, and then click to clear the option
Load startup items check box.

e) On the ‘Services’ tab, click to select the
‘Hide all Microsoft services’ check box, and then click
‘Disable all’.

f) On the ‘Startup’ tab, click ‘Open Task Manager’.
In the Task Manager window under startup tab,
right click on each startup item which are enabled and select ‘Disable’.

g) Click ‘OK’, and then click Restart.



Step B: Enable half of the services

a) Follow steps 1a and 1b to start the System Configuration utility.

b) Click the Services tab, and then click to select the
Hide all Microsoft services check box.

c) Click to select half of the check boxes in the
Service list.

d) Click OK, and then click
Restart.



Step C: Determine whether the problem returns.



If the problem still occurs, repeat step 1 and step 2. In step 2, click to clear half of the check boxes that you originally selected in the
Service list.

If the problem does not occur, repeat step 1 and step 2. In step 2, select only half of the remaining check boxes that are cleared in the
Service list. Repeat these steps until you have selected all the check boxes.

If only one service is selected in the Service list, and you still experience the problem, the selected service causes the problem. Go to step 6. If no service causes this problem, go to
Step 4.

Step D: Enable half of the Startup items:

If no startup item causes this problem, a Microsoft service most likely causes the problem. To determine which Microsoft service may be causing the problem, repeat step 1 and step 2 without selecting the
Hide all Microsoft services check box in either step.



Step E: Determine whether the problem returns:




If the problem still occurs, repeat step 1 and step 4. In step 4, click to clear half of the check boxes that you originally selected in the
Startup Item list.

If the problem does not occur, repeat step 1 and step 4. In step 4, select only half of the remaining check boxes that are cleared in the
Startup Item list. Repeat these steps until you have selected all the check boxes.

If only one startup item is selected in the
Startup Item list, and you still experience the problem, the startup item that is selected in the list is the service that is causing the problem. Go to step 6.

If no startup item causes this problem, a Microsoft service most likely causes the problem. To determine which Microsoft service may be causing the problem, repeat step 1 and step 2 without selecting the
Hide all Microsoft services check box in either step.



Step F: Resolve the problem:

After you determine the startup item or the service that causes the problem, contact the program manufacturer to determine whether the problem can be resolved. Or, run the System Configuration utility, and then click
to clear the check box for the problem item.



Step G: Reset the system to Normal startup mode:

Note: After you have finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to boot to normal startup.

a) Press the ‘Windows + R’ key on the keyboard.

b) In the ‘Run’ windows type
MSCONFIG and click ‘Ok’.

c) On the ‘General’ tab, click the
‘Normal Startup’ option, and then click ‘OK’.

d) When you are prompted to restart the computer, click
‘Restart’.
