Can I disable services of Eaz-Fix when not in use?

I have just installed a copy of EAZ-Fix to test out.

After installation & configuring is done...
I notice there are three processes that run in the background:

• SHDSERV
• ShieldClnt
• shieldtray

I've setup EAZ-Fix to be totally manual.
No "automatic this" or "scheduled that".

Is it safe to disable all/few of these autoruns & services?
When needed, I'd just start them up again.

 

I'm not too sure about that. I'll have to test it out and see what happens.
They don't consume much resources anyway, only around 20mb of ram. My system has been on for 8 hours SHDSERV.exe has used 18 seconds of cpu time, both ShieldClnt.exe and shieldtray.exe have used 0 seconds of cpu time.

 

I'd rather not have all of them running.

I searched and discovered that "SHDSERV.exe" is essential:
"a hard-coded scheduler to defrag the current snapshot every hour"

So I guess my question would only apply to the other two.

Thanks for any assistance.

 

That's why I asked.
I was curious about whether they were necessary...
Or just left there because of oversight.

Anyways, I've done more research since posting this topic.
I've now scratched out "Eaz-Fix" from my list.

I liked its low disk usage.
But I didn't like the continuous operation and restriction of disk defragmentation.

So I guess any future posters can rest easy.
I don't need answers for this topic.
