Create a XP/2003 service

#1 Post by thoubugyou »

I've taken some time looking for the smallest possible portable freeware that allows user to create a system service on xp/2003 based on a given executable. Would be something like the GUI version of the cmd 'sc create' or an alternative of Firedaemon functionality.

Any help would be appreciated.

Maybe I misunderstood you, but...

Code: Select all

services.msc
Save as .bat. Takes 12 bytes. You can't shave much from it.

I'm looking for a portable freeware that allows to create a service from a executable, like Firedaemon (or the command line sc create) does.

Tested RunAsSvc: Portable

Obviously it needs to write to the Registry, because this is the nature of the program. But no program settings are written.
