NOTE: I do not recommend this for several reasons: violation of the usage agreement and that you will have various issues with WHS (remote access user issues, server shutting down, etc). I only present here as the method of doing is interesting and to discourage you from doing so:
- Open Process Explorer (Sysinternals) and select and suspend the sbscrexe.exe process.
- Run RegEdit32.exe and expand the nodes until you reach the following hive / key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SBCore - Right click this, hit permissions and give the “Administrators” group on the local machine full access ( don’t forget to replace permissions on child nodes ). F5 in regedit and you’ll see all of the values and data under this key.
- Select the “Start” DWORD and change it from 2 to 4 – this basically sets the service to the “Disabled” state as far as the MMC services snap-in (and windows for that matter) is concerned.
- Next, adjust the permissions on the file C:\WINDOWS\system32\sbscrexe.exe so that EVERYONE account is denied any sort of access to this file.
- Then go back to process explorer, and kill the sbscrexe.exe process, if it doesn’t restart – congratulations!
- Load up the services MMC snap-in and you should find that “SBS Core Services” is stopped and marked as Disabled.
