  • reWASDService.exe running in background

    Hello.

    How do I stop the service from running when windows starts. I only want the service to run when i use the program.

    I have just been ShadowBanned from MW2 and Warzone 2. My first ever shadowban. I am not saying its from this service running. But it could be,

    And the fact Activision give no details on what caused the ban, I and paranoid now.

    This service does not need to be running when I am not using ReWASD.

    Is there anyway to do this?

    [reWASDEngine.exe] is the Tray Agent process, not the service. You can shut it down by using the [Exit] command in the agent`s tray icon context menu.

    You can stop the service (reWASDService.exe) via Windows Services.

      Thanks for the reply.

      I know i can manually stop the service.

      But I am asking how can I stop the service from starting with windows.

      I do not want to manually stop the service every time I boot up windows. Surely there is a way to do this?

        You could try changing its start type to [Manual].

          Yes I finally found it.

          Its called "Game Controller Mapping Service" in the services window. But everywhere else in task manager its called " reWASDService.exe"

          was stumped trying to locate it in the actual services window.



          I set it to manual. sorted.

          Thanks again...
