Disable services in Scripting
Hey Ninjas
I am trying to disable a service from running on every computer.
I see a quick and easy solution to stop services in the scripting wizard under scripting - Tasks, easy as choosing the drop down and selecting "Stop Services" but the services just start up every 15mins or so. So I need to disable the service. How?
I tried running a batch file
"sc config "ServiceName" start= disabled" BUT I have to run it as admin on all Windows 8.1 machines and I cant get it to run.
So I added "runas /user:domain\useraccount" to the parameters field with no luck.
Likely I could get the whole thing to work with a batch file if I could get the batch to run as ADMIN. How?
Thanks
Nick

I've used scripting to stop services but use the batch section. Don't put anything in the verify leave it blank. Try running these in a command prompted window as a administrator first. - mikesharp1 10 years ago

Posting this got me thinking and I figured it out.
Light bulb came on bright and went DUH!!!! DOH! lol
I ran the script as local admin:
Windows Run As
- Local System
- Logged-in user
- All logged-in users
- User: Password:
