6037.0. "Removing a service" by ADCA01::KISHORI () Sat May 24 1997 04:12

    Hi,
    
    I have registered and created a service in WNT 4.0. I can see the
    service in the services icon, but I get a access denied error when I
    try to start it. I want to delete this service and create it afresh.
    How do I remove a service ? It must be something to do with registry
    settings, but I'm unable to recollect ? Does anybody know this ??
    
    Thanks in advance
    Kishori

6037.1	delete a service	DECWET::COOK	Steven D Cook	`Tue May 27 1997 15:27`	9
	1) open regedt32.exe. 2) find the service located in: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\???ServiceName??? 3) delete the ???ServiceName??? key. 4) reboot. This will delete the service. --Steven Cook-- NTSG Clusters Engineer
