Re: BITS Service disappeared in services-list Vista32

Thnx! Copied your settings, all seems working.

Except : When opening properties for BITS via Services.msc, the following
error appeares : "Configuration Manager: The specified value does not exist
in the registry"

Trying to find out what value is ment with ProcessMonitor right now. Quite a
bunch of regkeys..

Note : I've used the following for the key "Description" : "Transfers files
in the background using idle network bandwidth. If the service is stopped,
features such as Windows Update, and MSN Explorer will be unable to
automatically download programs and other information. If this service is
disabled, any services that explicitly depend on it may fail to transfer
files if they do not have a fail safe mechanism to transfer files directly
through IE in case BITS has been disabled".

But essentially, you could set this to anyting I guess.

Re: BITS Service disappeared in services-list Vista32

When I try to write these values to the registry, regedit serves me with the
error "Cannot create value: Error writing to the registry". Why could that be?


[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Enum\Root\LEGACY_BITS\0000]
"Service"="BITS"
"Legacy"=dword:00000001
"ConfigFlags"=dword:00000000
"Class"="LegacyDriver"
"ClassGUID"="{8ECC055D-047F-11D1-A537-0000F8753ED1}"

I'm not sure what that error message means, but there may be more
information on it in Event Viewer, so that may be worth a look. It sounds
like you're missing another registry key somewhere.

Changing the description shouldn't have any significant effect at all on
functionality afaik

Re: BITS Service disappeared in services-list Vista32

Solved all. Thread closed. Thanx, Jon!

NOTE : If you want to change stuff in the registry (Win Vista) under

HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Enum\Root

You'll have to take ownership first !! With XP, this was not the case.

That's probably just a permissions issue. Adjust the permissions on the key
via its properties.

Yeah, you need that key too. That has additional settings for startup. There
are others relating to that key used by hardware profiles but they're
probably not relevant here.
