Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

AtlasOS removes various features that may be needed to free up system resources. An obvious side effect of this is that these features are lost and can't not be easily reinstalled.

Describe the solution you would like.

A few options are available that can disable processes and services without stripping them out completely.

NTSuspendProcess

NTSuspendProcess halts processing of the process or service but keeps the process resources in RAM so they can continue to be used once the process is resumed. This provides quick disabling and renabling of features without having to load resources used back into RAM. The obvious downside to this is RAM usage is not decreased.

Image File Execution Options

Image FIle Execution Options, along with it's filter option, allow calls to processes or services to be intercepted, and optionally ignored altogether. This can be applied and removed at any time in the Registry without needing a reboot or relog to disable processes or services.

Perhaps users can be given the option to customize what features they want "removed", "disabled", or "disabled in RAM" which will improve compatibility and security, while still heavily reducing resource usage.

Describe alternatives you have considered.
