Black Viper's Windows 7 Service Pack 1 Service Configurations

Black Vipers Windows 7 Service Pack 1 Service Configurations
Introduction
To continue my fine tradition of optimizing MSs latest OS, I have here my
findings to date. If you are looking for Windows 7 Retail information, you are
almost in the right spot.
Before adjusting your service settings, ensure that your system has already
installed all updates by checking now for any available updates via Windows
Update. At this time, it is best for you to ensure that all services are set to the
default values before updating your system.
Breakdown of all changes to date: Windows 7 Information Changelog.
I cannot possibly test all configurations extensively (meaning, each persons
specific computer needs), but what I can offer is what works for me and the
obstacles I have came across so you do not have to discover them on your
own. If information on this page needs a revision or expanded, please feel free
to comment below.
An * (asterisk) indicates changes from the default
Two ** (asterisks) indicates you can add or remove this service by:
Head to Start
Select Control Panel
Select Programs
Select Programs and Features
Select Turn Windows Features on or of
Three *** (asterisks) indicates optional services installed with Windows Live
Essentials.
Four **** (asterisks) indicates changes from Retail (SP0) to Service Pack 1.
Notes for a Happier Computer and User
Do not use msconfig to disable services, type services.msc in the

Run box instead or check this FAQ!
Before disabling any service, check out the service information about
each by selecting the service name links provided.
Service settings are global, meaning changes apply to all users.
All of these services are Standard with Windows 7 Service Pack 1 and
installed by default, by Add/Remove Windows Features, or installed via
Windows Live Essentials. If you discover a service that is not listed here,
another application, driver or program installed them. A few of the more
common ones are listed here.
WLAN Autoconfig service is required for normal operation of your

wireless network card. It is listed here as Manual due to most desktops
not needing wireless access, but if you do have a wireless network card
installed, it will be in Automatic by default.
Still unsure? Put your setting to Manual or the listing under Safe.
Manual allows Windows 7 Service Pack 1 to start the service when it
needs to (or when ever it feels like it), but not at boot up. Depending on
your configuration, not all services will start when required while in
Manual mode. If you find you need a service, place it in Automatic.
After adjusting your service settings, reboot your computer.
Before posting your question in the comments below, see if your

question has been addressed in the FAQ!
Table Header Information
The columns are sortable. Select the column header to sort by that
field.
DEFAULT ~ What MS thinks should be running on Windows 7 Service

Pack 1.
Safe Configuration ~ This is the configuration that 95% of the

people will be able to use with little or no side effects. It will also
minimizes the amount of errors that is reported in the Event Viewer.
This does not guarantee it will work for you, but if adjusting your
services scares you, this configuration would be a good starting point.
o
19 service settings have been changed from the default

annotated by an (*) asterisk.
Tweaked ~ This is the configuration that I have developed to reduce

the Safe services started, but maintain system security. This does not
guarantee it will work for you.
o

This configuration is a system that is still able to perform many

LAN networking functions, such as file and print sharing,
HomeGroup access and uses wireless networking (laptop) plus
leaves several security related features like the Windows
Defender, Windows Firewall and Windows Update active.
This configuration is not for a Windows Media Center PC. In this

case, use Safe.
Bare-bones ~ WARNING!! ~ This configuration disables many built in

features of Windows 7 Service Pack 1 as well as several security
features.
o

This configuration is not for a system that is directly connected to

the internet as Windows Defender, Windows Firewall and Windows
Update are disabled!
This configuration is not for a laptop system as wireless

networking (as well as Defender and Firewall) are disabled and will
not be able to counter attacks while roaming on some random
wireless connection outside of the home.
This configuration is not for a system that internal network

attacks are an issue. For example: Multiple PCs with multiple
family members and inexperienced users. For this situation, I
highly recommend Safe to ensure network security and
Windows Update compatibility.
This is not for a system that provides networked resources, such

as printers, Media Center, and WMP library to other LAN
connected computers.
Use this configuration at your own risk. It is only provided

here as a reference for me to adjust my system setting. If you
tweak your Windows 7 OS, use Safe unless you read and
understand what you are doing.
Configuration Information
Automatic ~ With a service in this state, it will start at boot time. Some
services, when no longer required, will also automatically stop when not
needed. If you find you do not need a service, place it into Manual or
Disabled.
Automatic (Delayed Start) ~ With a service in this state, it will start

just after boot time. Some services, when no longer required, will also
automatically stop when not needed. If you find you do not need a
service, place it into Manual or Disabled.
Manual ~ Manual mode allows Windows to start a service when needed.

However, very few services will start up when required in Manual mode.
If you find you need a service, place it into Automatic.
Disabled ~ This setting will stop a service from starting, even if needed.
Errors in the Event Viewer will show up complaining of that fact. Some
services, while Disabled, will constantly complain. However, this
situation is taken care of if placed in Manual. The service descriptions
identifies those that should be in Manual vice Disabled.
Started ~ A service that either set to Manual or Automatic that is

running by default at or shortly after boot time.
Not Started ~ A service set into Automatic that is not running by

default at or shortly after boot time.
Not Available ~ A service that does not apply to the particular

version.
Uninstalled ~ The ability to uninstall a service that I recommend to

be removed by using Add/Remove Windows Features.
Service Dependency Abbreviation Information
S ~ Windows 7 Starter
HB ~ Windows 7 Home Basic
HP ~ Windows 7 Home Premium
P ~ Windows 7 Professional
U ~ Windows 7 Ultimate
E ~ Windows 7 Enterprise
