I have an old program that ran as a service and I don't need it anymore.
I've STOPPED it and turn off the Automatic, but I want to delete the
service. Can someone tell me how to delete a service? I remember doing
this once in the command prompt, but I can not remember anymore.

Thanks!

Phil

look at the sc.exe command or the srvinstw.exe command from the resource
kit.

Delete the registry service subkey for it found in;
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services
then delete the files associated with it.
