Disable "Windows Update Medic Service" ("WaaSMedicSvc")
Overview
This script improves your privacy on Windows.
These changes use Windows system commands to update your settings.
This script disables the Windows Update Medic Service (WaaSMedicSvc
) and removes its
associated files and registry entries.
This service runs continuously in the background and maintains Windows Update components 1 2 3.
Disabling this service prevents it from reverting your Windows Update settings, such as re-enabling automatic updates without your permission 4. This gives you more control over your system's update behavior and settings.
This script enhances your privacy by reducing data transmission to Microsoft related to Windows Update processes.
Disabling the service improves system performance by eliminating a background process.
However, this can affect system stability and update reliability over time. It may lead to update failures or incomplete updates. As a result, you may miss critical security updates, potentially exposing your system to security vulnerabilities.
Disabling this service may stop Windows from automatically fixing update issues. This may lead to update failures or security vulnerabilities if updates are not managed manually.
Technical Details
By default, the service is enabled with a manual startup type 5 6.
It runs %SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WaaSMedicSvc.dll
6, also known as the "WaaSMedic Service DLL" 7.
It stores remediation settings like registry keys, tasks, and services in the %SYSTEMROOT%\WaaS\
folder 8 9 10.
This script disables the service, terminates and blocks its executable, and removes its files and Component Object Model (COM) objects.
