What is a service?
Think of a service as software in your computer that “serves” programs and hardware in by carrying out very specific tasks. For example, a “Print Spooler” is a service that manages print jobs you send to your printer. If your printer can’t handle the amount of information you are sending it, the Print Spooler will recognize this and slow down the transfer of information.
Some services are essential to the operation of your computer, while other services are considered non-essential and will cause no problems in your computer if you disable them.
