it would also be cool to add a driver updater feature

Add spooler services to manual

I'm not quite sure how I feel about modifying the default for the Print Spooler Service, because printing in Windows is already flaky enough. Even though it shoudntn't introduce any problem, I'm not sure if it's smart to play around with the defaults in this case because the potential problems and issues that this could entail will be annoying to fix for the layman and reflect badly on the reputation of winutil like "Winutil broke my printer"

Introduce a separarate option to set the printer to manual with a pop-up warning then. You already put so many tweaks, you you telling me you scared of the print spooler service? Lol I'd say it's highly unlikely that setting the print spooler to manual will entail any issues, probabilities less than 1% fs. There are also three other famous optimization softwares: razer cortex, kerish doctor and advanced system care, it would be nice to take a look at them and do the same you could with the black bird software if you haven't already.

and one more option to reset it to automatic, do this with any other services you are in doubt too.

just one correction: Only add if it is viable, for example I was taking a look at one of the services that could be set to disabled by blackbird and one of them was the notification push, that one is actually necessary, I mean it could be set to manual, but I´d say it needs to be running all the time in order to detect the notifications, i´m not 100% sure though, just speculating.

Currently setting Services is on one and only tweaks. But the Toolbox might being used in the bussiness somewhere around the world. They need Printer to Print out some documents. So if we set the Printer Service to Manual it might breaking some stuff. (Might also break Microsoft to PDF Converter) So in this case. It's not very suitable to adding Printer Service to Manual.

Also the BlackBird Tweaks is a little bit outdated (Last Updated in 2022) So it might also break something in Windows Install. Also Might getting Flagged From Windows Defender. Which is the thing we have to avoid otherwise we are going to get a new issue called. MY ANTIVIRUS FLAGGED WINUTIL

Almost no one uses the printer service and it's highly unlikely to cause any issues just from merely setting it to manual(if it does, then it's window's fault), he could put a pop-up checkbox asking if I want to set the printer service to manual at my own risk or put a separarate option.

I'm not asking him to introduce the ability to download the program inside winutil but rather to add whatever useful features that program has that could be missing in winutil, winutil is supposed to be the ultimate program for Windows optimization and setup.

In my research. HP and Samsung does use Printer Service.

And I think O&O Shutup already in the toolbox will also work that way the BlackTweaks Does. (Though O&O's Default Settings is very... bad)
