If your using the windows app, you should be able to comment out the scripted inputs in your under $SPLUNK_HOME\Splunk\etc\apps\windows\local\inputs.conf. Copy the scripted inputs from \Splunk\etc\apps\windows\default\inputs.conf and create a line under each stanza in the local file that says 'disabled = 1'
