Re: how to delete a service

To delete a service.

Open Services...
Start | Run | Type: services.msc | Click OK |
Scroll down to and double click the service you want to get rid of |
On the General tab, Service name: take note of the Service Name not the
Display Name | Close Services

Then open a command prompt...
Start | Run | Type: cmd | Click OK |

Type: sc delete Whateverservice Service Name

and hit Enter

Reboot.

See...
sc delete
here...

Or open the Registry Editor...
Start | Run | Type: regedit | Click OK |
Navigate to...
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Whateverservice

Delete it and reboot.

I found quite a few suspicious services running by using
"services.msc" command. I was able to disable them, but I feel much
better if I can somehow remove them permanently. How can I accomplish
that?
