Bilar Crais Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 (edited) Hello:Thank you so much for a brilliant tool! I just noticed in the event viewer that the Service Control Manager is pinging the Terminal Service every ten minutes and coming up with an error. "Registering with Service Control Manager to monitor Terminal Service status failed with The specified service does not exist as an installed service., retry in ten minute."I am guessing this is because I removed remote desktop in my Vlite install. I suppose it's no big deal, but those ugly red blotches in the event viewer bug me. Is there a way I can stop the Service Control Manager from babysitting Terminal Services?Thanks!CF Edited January 31, 2007 by Bilar Crais Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuhi Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 I was looking at that while removing Remote Desktop and no luck. Since it's harmless and only annoying I decided to leave the removal since the component alone is more annoying than the message. But I too can't wait to nail that annoyance. So if anyone finds the tweak to turn that off let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jody Thornton Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Oft in the future here...lol. What I ended up doing was extracting termserv.dll and termserv.dll.mui from the Install.wim package on the original Vista DVD-ROM. I placed termserv.dll in \windows\system32 and termserv.dll.mui in \windows\system32\en-us. I was now able to disable the service in the services applet. The notifications are gone...!

Jonny5isalivetm Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Dear JodyT your efforts are not in vain as another Vista fan here I did what you did but I still do not have Terminal Services service what else did you do ? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jody Thornton Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Well at first the service appeared in the Service Manager as "termsrv". I restarted Vista, and it appeared as "Terminal Services". I disabled the service, and after another restart, the messages disappeared from Event Viewer (I cleaned out Event Viewer, of course) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
