Speed ​​up computer Filter Win8 self-starting system service

Author: Song Jie

When you get a new computer, what to do first? Some friends may install the software directly, but I usually set up the current system to make it more suitable for my habits. After the introduction of Windows 8, the setting synchronization function was added to synchronize the settings of one Win8 computer to another through a Microsoft account. Only some deep system settings will not work, such as changes to system services. Some people may ask, is it not dangerous to tamper with system services? That's right, but some default system services are not needed by every user. Turning some unused services into manual can improve some system performance.

So, Xiaobian collected some system services that can be safely shut down in Windows 8. The following is a list for everyone. It is still necessary to reiterate here that it is necessary to make clear when changing system services.

First, we need to enter the management interface of the system service: open the [Win+X] menu and click “Computer Management”; or open the file explorer, right click “& computer” and select ““ Management”.

Enter the computer management window

Then in the left navigation window, expand “services and applications" and click “service”, you can see all the Windows background services It is.

Expand the service list

Change the service method: Double-click the service name, find the startup type in the window that opens, and set the drop-down option to “manual" as shown below. Why not change to disable? Because these services are not no longer needed, they don't have to be started with the system every time. Changing to manual does not affect the normal startup when it needs to be used.

Change to Manual Startup

The following are services that can be safely changed to manually started (sorted by name):

·Application Experience (Programming application at startup) Compatibility cache request)

·Computer Browser (maintains an updated list of computers on the network, can be changed to manual without networking)

·Diagnostic Policy Service< Br>

·Distributed Link Tracking Client (maintaining links between NTFS files in the computer)

·IP Helper (using IPv6 conversion technology)

·Offline Files( Offline File Service)

·Program Compatibility Assistant Service (Support for Application Compatibility Assistant)

·Portable Device Enumerator Service (Group Policy for Forced Mass Storage Device) )

·Print Spooler (can be turned off without a printer)

·Remote Registry (remote registry settings, this service should remain disabled)

·Secondary Logon (Enable the startup process under different credentials, change to manual, disable will cause games such as World of Warcraft to fail to log in)

·Security Center (monitor and report security and health settings on the computer) )

·Server (supports computers to share over the network, if it is in a stand-alone state, can be changed to manual)

·TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper (provides NetBIOS name resolution support, if If your computer is not connected to the workgroup network, you can change it to manual)

·Windows Error Reporting Service (Report an error and provide an existing solution)

·Windows Image Acquisition ( WIA) (Image capture service for scanners and cameras)

·Windows Search (providing content index, if you don't use Windows for your own search, you can change it manually)
