The problem isn't with the services themselves; it's the built-in spyware in Windows 10. You can remove it using third-party tools or be prepared for a lengthy process.
I aim to keep interference to a minimum during low latency live audio. A smooth system is crucial for me; even minor glitches will stand out in the stream. Thanks for any advice. I use Simplewall and occasionally run ccleaner. Previously tried OOSU10, but it caused issues, so I might revisit that app—it removed many unwanted functions.
It's possible to do that even though it isn't the user's responsibility; certain OS features may fail if data transmission to MS is restricted. I experienced minimal problems.
Black Viper? That really brings it back. People have mentioned you don't have to turn off services anymore. If you're worried about MS surveillance, there are many resources and tools for handling that. However, using things like CCleaner can cause issues. Stay away from those kinds of programs.
Eh, I've disabled Waasmedic Windows update orchestrator Some weird little exe which's name I forgot that's used to send a single notification about windows not being up to date Windows updates. *permanently* as I understand it windows can't do shit with an inoperable "update orchestrator" and 'waasmedic' service... If I click on update option it doesn't even open a window anymore... This seems like a net positive to me, pc runs a lot more smoothly since then, windows defender actually keeps getting updated (which was important to me) Yes, idk about the long term implications, and I don't plan to stay on this win version forever (but a few years if all goes well for sure) that's why I made backups... Definitely not recommend any of that if you don't have backups or use your pc for anything but gaming (which I do not, it's just a glorified console with mod support, I have no interest in word, excel, and 'online banking')
The spyware operates via 'services,' and disabling them usually has limited effect since Windows tends to reinstate them automatically. Preventing the service from running is necessary. SU10 would be ideal if it handled this, but in practice many issues reappear after updates, not just with changes.
