Win 11 Services strip down.

[K_F]

Other than BlackViper's goodies does anyone have a link or knowledge on stripping down Win11 services to a minimal system ?

The GOD mode is a goer, found it some time ago and it is occasionally useful.

Create a New Folder rename to exactly:

Code: [Select]

God Mode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C} 
When the icon changes to "Control Panel" icon, double click it.
You should have a list of various settings in one place ...
Each item must be double clicked, not single click like in control panel.

It was introduced for Windows 7 (could have been Vista), an undocumented feature from what I've read

Strangely enough, after having used it for years, I know how to set it up and use it.

That wasn't for you, of course you know.    But anyone else, since you didn't provide the (well known) "secret" folder name. 
I've used it for years as well.    Convenient way to access some settings without traversing all around the control panel. Actually I'm surprised it still works for Windows 10 (verified) and possibly Windows 11 (unverified) as well.
Windows 11 can use God Mode. Thank you C3 for that info. (Post below this one)

Hi,

GOD Mode works in Windows 11. I remember founding this in Windows 7.

Happy New Year, Petter

Well, whaddya know: I followed the instructions on that page, created the folder on my desktop, it works.

Then I tried something: Opened my TheBox container (details in the Workshop here), dragged the folder into the box, double-clicked it and it opened!

The nice thing is I can change that godawful name in the caption to just "God Mode" and it still works.

Thanks all 

Just got a new box, before I switched on... pulled it apart, pulled out the wireless module, trashed the installed win10 and installed win11.
The box will remain 'isolated'  , but still need to pull off all the crap.

Had the seller/retailer emailing me a few times if I got my delivery.
Replied a few times, Yes and happy.

You could try Ghost Spectre.

I've disabled everything apart from the most critical services needed to run "windows security" and backup because there's too many things to remember and it would take 4 days again to get it right.
