    As in topic, I have issue with Task View, or WinKey + Tab shortcut, after executing it, it crashes explorer and restarting it, Windows 1803

    I've followed some tutorials on web to fix it but from what I see I do not have service named:

    CDPUserSvc_XXXXXXX

    And I am not able to set it start to automatic or disabled/enabled

    I do not even have it in registry key editor (regedit)

    Is there a way to re-enable it somehow or fix that issue?

    Why don't you just install 19H1?

    Is there a way to disable Defender, Windows Update and SmartScreen on that version?

    CDPUserSvc and similar services are locked, you need Trusted Installer rights to enable/disable. YOu need tool like NSudo for that.
    and then simply use those commands...

    Code:
    reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\CDPUserSvc" /v "Start" /t REG_DWORD /d 2 /f >nul 2>&1
    sc config "CDPUserSvc" start= AUTO >nul 2>&1

  5. Yes, and it’s the first version on which you will be able to disable it via GPO.

    And 1803 only gets support until November, 2019.
