what widows service is safe to turn on/off while doing tests?
Post Body
howdy y'all,
i've a need to turn on/off a service to test some other code that compares the services that are running. is there a service that ...
- is available on most relatively current versions of windows
- can be safely turned on/off without harmful side effects
perhaps something like Windows Biometric Service
?
take care,
lee
i'm going with the print spooler service since that otta be everywhere and it sure as heck ought not to be in use at the time. [grin]
thanks to boli99 for that suggestion - and thanks to alla y'all for the various ideas!
take care,
lee
