Service Description
Startup
Default
Distributed Transaction
Coordinator
Coordinates transactions that span multiple resource
managers, such as databases, message queues,
and file systems. If this service is stopped, these
transactions will fail. If this service is disabled, any
services that explicitly depend on it will fail to start.
Automatic
DNS Client The DNS Client service (dnscache) caches Domain
Name System (DNS) names and registers the full
computer name for this computer. If the service is
stopped, DNS names will continue to be resolved.
However, the results of DNS name queries will not be
cached and the computer's name will not be
registered. If the service is disabled, any services
that explicitly depend on it will fail to start.
Automatic
DNS Server The DNS server service stores and resolves DNS
names of clients in order to enable computers to
locate other computers and services. If the service is
stopped or disabled, DNS updates and queries from
clients sent to the local computer will not be
processed. Any services that explicitly depend on the
DNS server on the local computer will start to see
failures.
Automatic
Encrypting File System (EFS) Provides the core file encryption technology used to
store encrypted files on NTFS file system volumes. If
this service is stopped or disabled, applications will
be unable to access encrypted files.
Manual
Extensible Authentication
Protocol
The Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) service
provides network authentication in such scenarios as
802.1x wired and wireless, VPN, and Network
Access Protection (NAP). EAP also provides
application programming interfaces (APIs) that are
used by network access clients, including wireless
and VPN clients, during the authentication process. If
you disable this service, this computer is prevented
from accessing networks that require EAP
authentication.

Manual
FTP Publishing Service Enables this server to be a File Transfer Protocol
(FTP) server. If this service is stopped, the server

disabled, any services that explicitly depend on it will
fail to start.
