features you disabled of Windows 7 and why?

by benwild . Updated 16 years, 4 months ago

Had the same thread for Vista once, and now for Windows 7 what major features/service did you turn off in W7?

System Protection (Restore) -> Until I get a bigger harddrive, I’ll keep it off. It is space chewing and there are so many good free backup utilities there, I use Easeus backup personally and Macrium sometimes.

Windows Search (Indexing services) -> Search will be fast as long as your files are organized and the condition is okay.

Windows Defender -> NOD32 is fine.

How about you guys?
