joakim Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 Maybe something as simple as; "sc.exe delete servicename" would be good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannie Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 (edited) Also the old pserv2.exe (freeware) may be useful for this purpose. It keeps working under Windows 7.The last version may be downloaded from here:http://p-nand-q.com/download/pserv_cpl.htmlHTH Edited December 3, 2011 by cannie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoffeeFiend Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 I'm not sure why people would go out of their way to download a 3rd party util when sc.exe which comes with the OS does this just fine (even on remote PCs). PowerShell (and vbscript/jscript) can also do this by the WMI way: enum Win32_Service, filtering on the service name, then call the Delete method on it -- in a simple one-liner:(gwmi win32_service -filter "name='ServiceNameHere'").delete()Obviously, sc.exe/PowerShell or whatever will have to be run elevated for it to work.
