Deleting Service Host: Local Service Processes on Task Manager

I've recently come across a solution to better improve the performance of my laptop which was unding tasks for the Service Host: Local Service. I saw multiple Service Host: Local Services, and decided to end all of its tasks. All of a sudden, my laptop
turned off. I thought I screwed up the files, but my laptop only lost power. Although ending the Service Host tasks didn't affect my computer in any way, is there a posibility that ending all of the tasks on Task Manager will affect the entire computer?
