How to Disable Media Manager Services

UPDATE: Roxio has made it harder to disable “Media Manager Services” now.

In Windows Vista:

  1. Click the Start button, type “msconfig” and hit enter.
  2. When the small “User Account Control” window pops up, click continue.
  3. Click the Startup tab
  4. Look for “CommonSDK” in the Startup items in the left column.
  5. Check the Command column, which should say “RoxWatchTray9.exe”
  6. Uncheck the box for that row.
  7. Restart your machine.

ALTERNATE OLDER VERSION:

After installing Roxio Creator, you might have a system tray icon that you can’t seem to get rid of.

Here’s how to turn off the Media Manager Services icon:

  1. Start Roxio Creator
  2. On the left side, click Audio.
  3. Then click Audio CD
  4. On the left bottom, click Settings
  5. Uncheck Watch Folders at Startup
  6. Then click OK
