i installed the toolkit and noticed that this new process was resident in memory - sqlwriter.exe

not sure if its the latest version of it (windows 7) but i have noticed certain anomalies with other programs with it installed.
(steam doesnt always allow logon when started ... crysis doesnt always start and just gives a black screen..)

so can this be nuked from memory or somehow told not to load on start up?

i havent even used the toolkit yet, so why does this need to be memory resident?

It is the "SQL Server VSS Writer" service. If you do not need the functionality it provides (it allows the database to be backed up through the Volume Snapshot service), you can disable it; it is not needed for the toolset to function.

If you do not want the other SQL Server services running all the time either, you can set those to Manual start, but then of course you have to manually start it if you want to launch the toolset.

thankyou for the answer.



only other name which seems to be for sql stuff is - sqlservr.exe



can that safely be turned off, or is that one of those that you described as needing to be started for the toolset to function?

"sqlservr.exe" is the main SQL Server service. It must be active in order to run the toolset.

Can't I just run them when/if I want to run the toolset? I mean I run the game itself more often than I do the toolset, so shoot me!
