Weirdly enough, that happened to me too after installation :o I just ignored it and disabled it again. Hopefully, it stays that way this time 'round ;)

no matter if you change the setting through control panel, it will turn back on ...

On a side note, I remember, on Windows 7 or 8, I don't quite remember, the Windows Firewall used to get re-activated itself. I came to know about when one of my software wasn't connecting to the net. All this, inspite of me using Comodo FW and Windows being well aware about it.

so even if you re-disable the service all over again, the damn thing still changes back its state?

what type of connection do you have...is it dial-up or the permanently connected type or w/e it's called

I have permanently connection with my D-LINK router modem. Still my question,what service or KB patch to do this shit thing ?

You'll have to disable Fast Boot for that. Go to "Power Options" > Click on "Change settings that are currently unavailable" > Scroll to the bottom of the page and under "Shutdown settings", un-check the "Turn on fast startup" box, and click on "Save changes".

That's it. Hope that helps you :D

Disables just fine. But the first time 'round, it did re-enable itself automatically without any 3rd party software tweaks or anything :angry: Since then though, it's been a good boy :P

Did you disable Fast Boot from Control Panel > Power Options as I had suggested for the dual boot issue? :think:

As for auto-updates re-enabling, make sure you don't have automatic maintenance enabled in any 3rd party software like Tune-up or anything :dunno:

Also, disable "Automatic Maintenance" through Task Scheduler and also in Action Center. ;)

I already did.

This time,I don't have any 3rd party tune-up suite. I want make W8 as natural as should be. :wub: since I found everything run faster and smooth. I just run CCleaner once a week.

Also, disable "Automatic Maintenance" through Task Scheduler and also in Action Center

also already did. But disable "Auto Maintenance" was useless coz it will re-enable after restart the system. So, I much prefer to delete all task about maintenance from Task Scheduler
