Modify "disable-services" script to use Black Viper's service configuration(s)

[Tyestor]

Black Viper has two (four if you include Home/Pro defaults) service configurations; 'safe' and 'tweaked'. These configurations are much more...well...configured than what the Debloat-Windows-10 project's current script provides. I suggest modifying the script so that the user can choose which Black Viper config they wish to choose from.

Black Viper's site for reference: http://www.blackviper.com/service-configurations/black-vipers-windows-10-service-configurations/

The configs are at the bottom of the page.

This can probably be automated. Here is something I came up with in last 20 minutes. It will not change anything, just will list the differences from black viper.

$page  = iwr http://www.blackviper.com/service-configurations/black-vipers-windows-10-service-configurations
$table = $page.ParsedHtml.getElementById('tablepress-18')
$rows  = $table.childNodes[1].childnodes

$services=@()
foreach ($row in $rows ) {
    [array]$r = foreach ($c in $row.childnodes) { $c.InnerText }
    $services += ,$r
}

$notfound = @()
$ok       = @()
$bad      = @()
foreach ($service in $services) {
    $svc = gsv $service[1] -ea 0
    if (!$svc) { $notfound += $svc; continue }

    $st = $service[-1] -replace '\(.+' -replace '\*'
    $st = $st.Trim()

    if ($svc.StartType -ne $st) {
        Write-Host $svc.name 'is' $svc.StartType 'and should be' $st
        $bad += $svc
    } else { $ok += $svc }
}

"-"*80
"Services: " + $services.Length
"OK: " + $ok.Length
"Bad: " + $bad.Length

The output looks like this:

I can alter the default settings of the scripts to reflect Black Viper's Safe configuration.

Heh, I want tweaked but nobody released a script to do it for you. Either you have to do it by hand or write your own. :(

[W4RH4WK]

@forkoz you can always fork this repo and adjust the defaults to your needs.
