April 21, 200620 yr Are there tools that can check windows to see if any new services are installed after you install a new application?Thanks,Majoram
April 21, 200620 yr Start -> Run -> services.msc for a GUI overview.or the sc.exe command to query/start/stop/... services-> sc query <nameofyourservice>
April 21, 200620 yr Author Start -> Run -> services.msc for a GUI overview.or the sc.exe command to query/start/stop/... services-> sc query <nameofyourservice>Cool thanks but that's not quite what I wanted. Basically I'm looking for something that would be able to identify when a service was added to the list in services.msc.Say I installed a couple programs, then I would run this "miracle tool" and it would say the following services were added today.Or it would list all services and I can pick out the most recent services that were added by checking their dates/times compared to when I installed the programs.It's just hard to remember that whole list in services.msc and to then pick out the ones I don't recognize each time I install a bunch of programs.Thanks for the sc.exe command though. Cool stuff!
April 21, 200620 yr Sorry I guess I didnt get the question the first time Unfortunately I do not know a tool that can perform the things u want.Good luck searching !

April 23, 200620 yr You can use AutoRuns from www.sysinternals.com (In options check Hide Microsoft entry & Verify singatures) and you will see only third-party services in tab "Services".Goodbye.
April 24, 200620 yr Author perhaps "installrite" can help you.installrite or installwatchgo to http://www.epsilonsquared.com/.Cool thanks! I will take a look at it. I didn't know about this free version of an installation monitor.You can use AutoRuns from www.sysinternals.com (In options check Hide Microsoft entry & Verify singatures) and you will see only third-party services in tab "Services".Goodbye.Thanks Sonic! That's very close to what I am looking for. Just got to read up on it.Thanks again to all. I was very doubtful I would find what I was looking for.Majoram
