-basically the idea is that no matter how many services you disable/delete, the footprint will remain in SCVHOST. don't know what SCVHOST is? google
-this guide assumes you have deleted the same services like i did and have survived since then:
viewtopic.php?f=15&t=2456&p=48859#p48859
1. go to registry,
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Svchost]
go through each value, delete these services whenever you see them:
vmicheartbeat, vmicvss, vmictimesync, vmicshutdown, vmicrdv, vmickvpexchange
WdiSystemHost, WdiServiceHost, DPS
MSiSCSI, seclogon, SessionEnv, SENS, Remoteaccess, SCPolicySvc
2. don't tough anything else unless you have tested that SQ will improve.
3. there is also 64bits version of svchost at
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Svchost]
DON'T TOUCH IT unless you know SQ will increase.
how to tell if SQ has increased by deleting a service from svchost?
-if soundstage is reduced or messed up, stop right there!
-if SQ is less free/open, stop right there!
-soundstage can expand. sound should be more free more air more analog. vibration can improve.
what else have i tried?
-i tried put audioendpointbuilder , MMSCC into self-contained svchost, SQ changes, good and bad. shame really. thought SQ will increase unconditionally
-also tried to remove security of all SVCHOST by setting CoInitializeSecurityParam=0. SQ didn't increase.
NOTE: there should be more services removable. i am sick and tired of testing... already tried 30+ services...
