Automatic Maintenance does many Good ( and some bad ) things.
it should be Edited to leave out the "bad" things and leave the "good" things enabled.
Steps to reproduce
Install Atlas OS.
Expected behavior
Automated Maintenance Should still run the Critical components as in :
SmartScreenSpecific: updates application signatures for SmartScreen.- CleanupTemporaryState: clears temporary files in AppX (Metro/UWE) app packages. rundll32Windows.Storage.ApplicationData.dll,CleanupTemporaryState.- Pre-Staged App Cleanup: part of the AppX cleanup process. rundll32 AppxDeploymentClient.dll,AppxPreStageCleanupRunTask.- ProactiveScan: Does a chkdsk scan.- ScheduledDefrag: runs the Windows Defragmenter: defrag -c -h -o -$. This is often the task that takes the longest. Oddly, the -h switch makes it run at normal instead of low priority, which is odd for automatic maintenance. ( yes even important for NVME and SSD it does trim and stuff )
- Diagnosis\Scheduled: runs Windows Diagnostics.- SilentCleanup: runs Disk Cleanup: cleanmgr /autoclean /d %systemdrive%.
DiskDiagnosticDataCalculator: runs disk diagnostics. rundll32 dfdts.dll,DfdGetDefaultPolicyAndSMART.
- RunFullMemoryDiagnostic: a RAM diagnostic.- LPRemove: runs lpremove which removes unnecessarily or unusable language packs.- Plug And Play Cleanup: clears the state information for any Plug and Play devices which haven't been used for 30 days.- AnalyseSystem: runs Power Efficiency Diagnostics.- RegIdleBackup: makes a backup of the registry.- MRTHB: runs MRT /EHB /Q. This is the Malicious Software Removal tool, so this is likely a security scan.- StartComponentCleanup: cleans up the WinSxS directory that holds optional Windows component images.
- AccountCleanup: cleans up ancient user profiles on network shared machines.- ResPriStaticDBSync.- WsSwapAssessmentTask. Sysmain part.- SystemRestore. srtasks ExecuteScheduledSPPCCreation. Makes a Restore Point.- SynchronizeTime. sc start w32time task_started. Syncs the system clock.
SynchronizeTimeZone. tzsync. Connected to the above.- Maintenance Install. usoclient StartInstall. Installs any Windows Updates that have been downloaded but not installed yet.
Work Folders Maintenance Work. Relates to the Work Folders file sharing server system.**
Actual behavior
Maintenance service is disabled which is a High risk for multiple security and hardware related issues.
Atlas Edition
Atlas for Windows 11 23H2
Desktop information
Not necessary its a "cut down too much " issue on Atlas part.
Additional content
Disabling maintenance makes the OS slower , prone to more bugs , Trashing itself , and at risk of security and undiscovered hardware failures.
