Hi ,
On Windows 10 machines I need to disable all the following services but can't find a way of doing it via GPO or registry:
Peer Name Resolution Protocol (PNRPsvc)
Peer Networking Grouping (p2psvc)
Peer Networking Identity Manager (p2pimsvc)
PNRP Machine Name Publication Service
Any help please?
Hello.
To disable the services via registry, go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\<SERVICE NAME>. Set Start registry DWORD to 4. Do these for all services you want to disable and reboot.
To disable the services using Command Prompt, execute sc stop “<SERVICE NAME>” & sc config “<SERVICE NAME>” start=disabled command.
Hope this helps!
Hi,
There are more methods you could consider to disable the services like from GUI, commands, registry and so on.
1.Take "Disable a Service using "Sc Config" Command in Command Prompt" as example:
Type the command below into the elevated command prompt
sc config "service name" start=disabled
*The Service name of a service is displayed in the service's properties.
After successfully run the command, it will return message like: [SC] ChangeServiceConfig Success.
