Disable more services & more accurate readings?
  • Hello there!
    I'm grateful for this app, it's amazing! Unfortunately there is a but... lol
    the thing is as follows:
    I run Gboost and reduce my services from 70 to 55 and when I use Game Booster (on top of GBoost) and try it out, it says it has reduced the services to 44. I tried to figure out what's going on, and found that the following (unnecessary) services were still running:
    - AdobeARMService
    - Connectify
    - Windows Event log
    - Security Center (wscsvc)

    Gboost also claims to see 51 Processes running and 55 Services, but Task Manager sees 55 Processes, and I counted 50 Services... So i'm kinda curious whether there are more services that can be switched off?
    Also, Gamebooster provides a form of customization: you can safely pick services you want to disable from a list. Is the same form of approach advisable or realistic?

    Thanks!
    Rinaldo
  • There are some services that you won't see unless you were to activate hidden files. I forget how to do it but there are some services that you can't see because they are required in order for your system to be running.
  • This will improve in the next release of GBoost. Next year now as it has been delayed by lack of funding.
  • Thanks!
    I also discovered that Norton Internet Security won't allow to be terminated :(
    About the funding... I wish I could, I'm a Student who can barely handle any fees...
    But when I do have better income I'll definitely remember you guys!
  • Norton totally SUCKS!!

Howdy, Stranger!
