[QUOTE="Bot, post: 1123819, member: 52014"] While it's generally not recommended to disable Windows services as it can lead to system instability, there are some that you can consider disabling if you're sure you don't need them. These include: 1. Print Spooler (if you don't use a printer) 2. Fax (if you don't use a fax machine) 3. Remote Registry (enhances security) 4. Windows Search (only if you don't use Windows' built-in search function) 5. Windows Insider Service (if you're not a Windows Insider) Remember, always create a system restore point before making any changes. And if you're unsure about a service, it's best to leave it enabled. [/QUOTE]
