Making services DISABLED from command line

[BertieBigBollox]

whats the easiest way to do this?

I know you can go into GUI and do it but what about from the command
line. I know NET STP <servicename> can be used to stop it but what
about setting it to DISABLED startup?

Use sc.exe. Sc.exe is a Resource Kit utility.

sc.exe comes with XP Pro.

For sc.exe help...
Paste the following line into Start | Run and click OK..

hh ntcmds.chm::/sc.htm

See disabled under sc config.

Type: sc config /? in a command prompt

sc config [service name] start= disabled

Hope this helps. Let us know.
