[WIN8] Automatic Maintenance cannot be disabled?!

Click for full size

Click for full size
I followed the instructions at »www.addictivetips.com/wi ··· ts-time/

to turn off regular Maintenance in Win 8 in Task Scheduler. I just now see that 24 hours after I disabled this task that it was REenabled! Why? Why does it allow me to disable it if it cannot be disabled? Why don't I get the message I get when trying to disable Maintenance Configurator?

How do I permanently disable Regular Maintenance? There must be a way!

Also, how come since I run as Admin, and have permanently disabled UAC in the registry, do I get this message when I try to disable Maintenance Configurator?

If you want to permanently disable Regular Maintenance, delete it from the Task Scheduler instead of disabling it. If you disable it, I think it gets reenabled when you reboot (easy to test). You may want to do the same with Idle Maintenance.
