You can see the code here: https://github.com/chocolatey/boxstarter/tree/master/Boxstarter.Bootstrapper https://github.com/chocolatey/boxstarter/tree/master/Boxstar... I'm not entirely clear why they need to disable it (they only say "to prevent installation conflicts and minimize the need for reboots") but it's meant to re-enable it afterwards.
