Services
services.msc (Run dialog or Start menu search)The graphical console for viewing and managing every Windows service — starting, stopping, and setting a service's startup type (automatic, manual, disabled).
// EXAMPLE
Opening services.msc and setting "Print Spooler" to Automatic and starting it is a common fix for a printer that won't respond.
// GOTCHA
Disabling the wrong service (especially ones with cryptic names) can silently break unrelated functionality — always check what depends on a service before disabling it, not just what it's named.
