Why would I want to disable a Windows service?

As mentioned before, many services are not crucial to the operation of your computer. In fact, there are some services that don’t do much but contribute to your PC slowing down!

By disabling services you free up valuable resources towards the use of programs and applications you would like to use at optimal performance.

Also, some variants of viruses and Malware install themselves as services.

NOTE: Some advanced variants of spyware and malware services have the ability to see when they are being disabled. Usually, booting to safe mode ensures the malware and viruses do not become active and prevent you from effectively disabling them.
