Managing Windows Services - Delete/Add
First things first, lets delete cause that's super easy and before I delete anything I make sure to create backups. What I'm looking to do is expand a system like topshelf where it can just manage it remotely for me but using devops can be tricky.
//delete command
sc.exe delete <service name>
or Ps way
Remove-Service -Name "TestService"
Note: curious about the registry but its better to use sc.exe.
sc create asperacentral
binPath= "C:\Program Files\Aspera\Enterprise Server\bin\Debug\asperacentral.exe"
DisplayName= "Aspera Central"
start= auto
When it comes to publishing a service, it is a bit more difficult what I would like to have is something
similar to "Oneclick publish" but that would require a visual studio plugin to add the feature and than
service
installed to capture the files to install. Well for now its a pipe dream...
