Question

Hi world.

I would like to turn off the dosvc services due to improper environment.

So I commanded 'sc config dosvc start= disabled' on cmd but access denied.

Is it only way to change registry key to command

'reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\DelveryOptimization\Config" /v DODownloadMode /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f'?

It isn't possible to turn off the service?

Thank you very much.

Regards

Chris

Hello,

Make sure you create System Restore point before editing registry.

In Registry Editor, go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\DoSvc. Set the Start registry DWORD to 4, and reboot your system. 

See if that helps!
