Windows Audio: Provides and controls all audio support for Windows, see this one. Windows Time: Syncronizes the system time with a timeserver. Removable Storage: No it doesn't, may however affect tape drives or others. Read some more on the subject of services for example here, or search. No offence, but you really need to start searching for the info before asking in the forums.

I'm sure i can translate it back so no big problem for me however i thought you'd might like to know.

In my experience, that service is not only not vital, it's completely useless and can be safely disabled. I've left it disabled on (at least) 500 systems over the years that ranged from domain/web/file/print servers to all types of workstations. Never had anything even try to access it, much less any problems from disabling it. Since it doesn't seem to frivolously start, leaving it on manual is probably safer than disabling it, but I'm somewhat of a control freak, so I just really like seeing all that MS crap with "Disabled" next to it and know, at least on some level, I still control my box, not Microsoft. -KZ

Group: Members Posts: 484 Joined: 5-March 05 From: Krn Member No.: 46454 OS: Windows 7 x64	@phaolo: If you use any of those applications there might be some reason to keep them. If you want to show or hide a user account on the XP-login screen (administrator for example, see this link) you may need to set a value in the subkey [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINES\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogin \SpecialAccounts\UserList]. You can do that after deleting the key you mentioned. This post has been edited by DL.: Mar 19 2007, 10:07 AM

QUOTE Are you sure about deleting Special Accounts? I was told they are needed (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\SpecialAccounts) Don´t worry phaolo, it is safe. I always do that! QUOTE Here's a few tweaks I use that work, and that I didn't see included in the collection kelaniz, some of those are already in the package, some are not. I will be sure to include them on the next version. Thank you. QUOTE Just an observation: In the readme, it says that Windows Management Instrumentation Driver Extension is one of the vital services that should be set to automatic, or at worst, manual. In my experience, that service is not only not vital, it's completely useless and can be safely disabled. GrofLuigi, my mistake.

Do you mean export that key and add it to my first run tweaks reg importer, or.. what? From what I've been able to see, clicking Show Small Icons in Start Menu (I use Classic Start Menu, btw) queries, sets and removes about 100 different keys. Obviously, most of those are other checkbox settings in that dialog. Unless I'm going blind, the Stuckrects key isn't one of them. Also, this setting applies instantly. So if that key is written on shutdown/cancelled shutdown, how would it affect the Small Icons setting? I'm pretty sure the Small Icons tweak in the collection works for the New Start Menu, but not Classic. That's the one that seems to be the troublemaker. I'll add this key to my tweaks and see what happens. I also just noticed that at some point after checking Small Icons in SM, Windows deletes this key: CODE [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced] "Large_Icons"=dword:00000000 Maybe that has something to do with it? Arggh. One little annoyance that's keeping my DVD from finalization.
