Answers

## Questions about this video

What are the different levels of disabling services in this video?

There are three levels: 100% safe disables only non-critical services, warning disables more services but may cause issues, and danger disables almost all except essential Windows services, recommended only for advanced users.

How does the SVC host split threshold tweak reduce process count?

It combines multiple related services into fewer processes, reducing the number of processes shown in Task Manager, which lowers overall process count and improves system efficiency.

Is it safe to disable all startup apps and services using Autoruns?

No, you should only disable startup items you are sure you don't need. Disabling critical Windows services or apps can cause system instability, so proceed with caution and back up your system.

Speaker A

Yo, what's good, boys? Quick heads-up, I'm streaming right now. So, if you want to see this stuff live where I break windows in real time, the link's in the description. Come pull up, come say what's up. I'm going to be streaming

00:10

Speaker A

every Friday and Saturday, and sometimes Monday as well. But, I know what you guys are here for. You're here to lower your process count. And if your taskbar is lighting up like a Christmas tree, you've definitely got a problem. As you

00:20

Speaker A

can see right now, I'm chilling at around 114, 115 processes with 6 GB of memory use. Kind of forgot how bad stock Windows was. 6 GB of memory is crazy. If you're wondering why your game feels like you're playing through a microwave,

00:33

Speaker A

this is going to be exactly why. Today, we're going to take care of that for you guys and make sure your PC is going to be running like it's supposed to. And at the end of the video, we're going to

00:39

Speaker A

come back here and see what we can get our process down to and our memory usage down to, as well. So, if you guys are ready, go ahead and drop a like on the video, subscribe for more content like

00:47

Speaker A

this, leave a comment on what you guys want to see next. So, let's go ahead and get right into the video. So, I'm going to be using this file I made called Lower Processes 2026-Signs.

00:54

Speaker A

If you guys want this file, all you're going to do is join my Discord. The link will be in the description. This is what my Discord looks like. Once you see the YouTube tweaks channel, basically, it'll be the bottom file down here. So, I'm

01:03

Speaker A

just going to put this file in here as soon as the video goes live. So, by the time you're watching this video, the file will already be down here. So, just go ahead and grab it, extract it, put it

01:10

Speaker A

on your desktop. And then, once you have it open, it'll look just like this.

01:13

Speaker A

Basically, we're just going to go through everything here. I'm going to tell you guys what you're going to want to do. The first thing is disable services. Click into here. I have three different files in here. Basically, the

01:21

Speaker A

disable services 100% safe is what I'd recommend 99% of you guys to do. You aren't familiar with PC optimization, you don't know how to fix or troubleshoot things yourself, you're a little scared, any of the above, you're just going to want to go ahead and run

01:32

Speaker A

the 100% safe one. I'll show you how to run it in a second. We are going to have to use PowerRun to do that. The second one is warning. This one's going to disable even more services. And depending on what you use, it's kind of

01:41

Speaker A

50/50 if you might run into issues or not. So, it's just a warning. I still wouldn't run this one unless you know how to troubleshoot and fix things yourself. This last one is danger. This one is basically just going to disable

01:50

Speaker A

every single service. Only services that are going to be running are the ones Windows needs to literally boot up and run. I would not run this one unless you really know what you're doing. I have this one in here because I know some

01:59

Speaker A

people that watch my videos and know what they're doing. They want to be able to max out their system. Maybe just enable things manually that they need themselves. So, if you're someone like that, feel free to run this one. Just

02:07

Speaker A

know that you will run into issues. Of course, you're going to be responsible for your PC. At the end of the day, if you guys know how to wipe and reload your computer, feel free to run the warning or danger one 'cause you can always

02:16

Speaker A

just wipe with that ISO if you know how to do that, too. But, all of these are open source. You can right-click and click edit and see exactly what they're doing. You see the 100% safe one has a

02:22

Speaker A

few services in it. And then when we go to the danger one, you'll see this one has tons and tons and tons and tons of services. Basically, once you choose the one you want to run, all you're going to

02:29

Speaker A

do is go to PowerRun, click file, click allow command line. This is going to let these bats run at the highest permission level. That way it doesn't run into any errors. And then all you're going to do

02:36

Speaker A

is drag the file you want to use. So, for the example of the video, I'm just going to use the warning one. You're going to drag it over PowerRun, let it run. It's going to say complete, press

02:43

Speaker A

any key to continue, and then you're going to press enter or any key to close out of that. Then on a next reboot, those services will be disabled, and that tweak is applied. Once you're ready to go to the next thing, just go back in

02:52

Speaker A

the file one, and then go to SVC host split threshold in kilobytes. This is one of the biggest things we can do to reduce our process count. Basically, all this is going to be doing is combining the processes in Task Manager. So, a lot

03:02

Speaker A

of services can actually be grouped. Let's just say like Store and then Microsoft Defender services are running on your computer. Now, each of those are taking up two processes. Now, what this tweak is going to do is combine that two

03:12

Speaker A

processes into one process. It's going to let those services run together instead of separately, and that's why the process count is going to go lower.

03:18

Speaker A

Depending on how much RAM you have, more processes can be grouped. So, make sure to run the registry for the RAM number that you have. For example, if you have 32 gigabytes of RAM, don't try to run the ones above this because you can run

03:28

Speaker A

into blue screens, crashes, and issues like that. So, I have 32 gigabytes of RAM, so I'm going to run this one. So, just double-click on it, click yes, click okay. This is going to be applied on the next reboot. Once you're done

03:37

Speaker A

with this, go ahead and go back one, and then go to startup apps. There's two things we want to do in here. The first one is go to startup apps here. This is basically just going to show you all the

03:43

Speaker A

apps that start up with your PC. Of course, if you have like 50 apps starting up with your PC, that's just going to weigh it down a ton and give you a ton of processes no matter what you do. So, I'd recommend going through

03:52

Speaker A

here and just unchecking literally everything. The only thing I'd recommend keeping checked is if it's on for an optimization. For example, these two I have on because it's a part of a tweak, but literally anything else like Spotify, Epic Games, uncheck everything

04:03

Speaker A

like that. Once you're done with that, double click on PowerRun, do the same thing you did earlier, click file, click allow command line, and then close out of this, and then drag Autoruns 64 over PowerRun. Then you're going to click

04:12

Speaker A

agree here. Well, Autoruns is basically a more advanced version of what we were just looking at. This is going to let us disable apps that start up when our PC starts up. It'll even do services, drivers, task schedulers,

04:21

Speaker A

things like this. So, if you see something yellow, basically, you can see it says file not found, means that it existed at some point or Windows thought it did, but it doesn't exist anymore.

04:29

Speaker A

So, if you see something yellow, you can just uncheck it if you'd like. If you see something red, it just means that Windows can't verify what it is. So, things like 7-Zip or custom software that you've installed might show up as

04:38

Speaker A

red. It doesn't mean it's bad or anything. Obviously, I want 7-Zip to function and work on my computer, so I'm not going to uncheck anything like that.

04:44

Speaker A

But, if you scroll down, you'll see things like ASUS update check. Of course, we don't want that. Any of these Brave or Google Updaters or scheduled tasks, uncheck. Generally, anything browser-related, you can go ahead and uncheck. But, just kind of go through

04:54

Speaker A

here. Just be kind of careful though. If you do uncheck anything that Windows needs to run, you can risk breaking your OS. So, just uncheck things that you know you 100% don't need. Obviously, if you see services for like an app you

05:05

Speaker A

use, or if it says like telemetry or anything like that, usually safe to uncheck. If you guys have a question about a specific thing in here you want to know if you can uncheck or not, you can always just ask me in the comments.

05:13

Speaker A

I'll be happy

05:23

Speaker A

options and uncheck hide Windows entries. Now, what you want to do is kind of cut down the bloat in here if possible. Some things in here you want to remove. Now, because this is so important and so critical to do, I'd

05:32

Speaker A

recommend you guys kind of go through here. Anything that says task schedulers, anything that says application experience, customer experience improvement program, any things like auto check or diagnostic or disk diagnostic, maintenance, telemetry, anything like that in here if it has

05:47

Speaker A

that word in it, you can go ahead and just delete it or uncheck it. Now, you can see I've already gone through mine, so mine's pretty much cleaned up. I wouldn't recommend just matching the exact ones I have cuz your system is

05:55

Speaker A

going to be way different than mine, and you may be deleting stuff that you need.

05:58

Speaker A

If you want us to go through and make sure yours is completely deep-loaded, you can visit our website syns.net, synz.net, and we'll take care of you personally. But once you're done with this, go ahead and go back in the file

06:08

Speaker A

and then go to uninstall apps here. And then basically, you're just going to kind of go through here and then uninstall anything you don't need or use. This one's a little more simple.

06:13

Speaker A

Make sure you don't have anything installed or running that you don't use. So, for example, if I didn't use 7-Zip, I'll just click here, click on install, and then click okay. Just do this for every single thing you don't use it,

06:22

Speaker A

just uninstall it. Once you're done with that, guys, you're pretty much good to go. I'm going to reboot my computer real quick, and then we're going to go ahead and check my processes and my RAM after a reboot. All right, so I just booted

06:30

Speaker A

back up. Of course, I have OBS open, so my process and memory count is going to be a little higher, but let's go ahead and go to performance tab. You'll see even with OBS open, I have 62 processes,

06:39

Speaker A

and our memory is now down to 3 GB. You'll see that OBS is using up almost 600 MB, but it's really more like 2.4.

06:45

Speaker A
