Hi Nino333,
 
Welcome to the Webroot Community.
 
You can set Webroot to manual startup in "Services" (Start button, type "services.msc").
 
Scroll down to WRSVC and set to "Manual".
But be warned. Webroot will not run until you start it, possibly leaving you vulnerable to malware.
 
Hope this info helps,

Correct and not recommended! Webroot will not take any responsibility if you get infected by doing such a thing.
