Disabling services is usually my routine after a fresh install, yet this time around last weekend I was kind of set on installing my games and forgot. Questions are; is Remote Registry enabled or disabled by default in Win10? And if enabled (automatic/manual), should it be running???.. because it was. Should I be worried? I have never seen this service running ever and am now wondering if someone was messing about. Thanks

    Remote registry should be disabled regardless. It's not a necessary service you need to be running. Especially if you aren't connected to a domain with group policies enabled and pushed. The default settings is set to 'automatic'.

    Thanks for the reply, yeah I know I should have disabled it along with some other services but it totally slipped my mind. So it is automatic by default, thanks.
