Re: Services Editor

LOOKS impressive but seems to be in a rudimentary state. Not even a single word whether the list shows M$'s default settings or what. I feel I still have to go to BlackViper and check every single setting.

And the reg file they gave me is a joke; NO formatting at all. Regedit may swallow it that way but I rather have a chance at checking what such a file is doing before I run it.
Good try but definitely not for me.
