Windows 10: Where are the Services description in services.msc panel derived from in the registry?

For mcpmanagementservice, for example, I get under description "Failed to Read Description Error 15100".Where in registry is the description field populated from? I see the service entry in registry currentcontrolset/services but do not see the description line anywhere. Is it embedded inside the service file like a DLL?

:)

 

Edit Services "Description" field


As title suggests, I'm wondering how to edit the description of services that appear in "services.msc"... I have several programs that run as services that I know and use, but have no descriptions at all.

Would be nice to be able to see these and immediately recognize them when viewing list of running services.

Cheers

You should just know which services to set to manual, there are a ton of them, starting with xp. The time service is the first one... unless you set it up properly, just disable it. Then remote registry, I don't need anyone else messing with my registry... disable, I don't use themes, disable, there are a few others too, then things like adobe update service, not needed, disable... it's not that hard to figure out what you can disable, or at least put to manual.
Edit: if you need suggestions, get The Ultimate Troubleshooter, not free, but it will show you how to do much of this.
