service.create for AMS?

[yss]

Hi,
can the SUF "service.create" function be transfered / copied / created in AMS?

Would be usfull to start, stop, install, and remove services...

Thanks

That action is not available in AutoPlay Media Studio 5.0. It is available in Setup Factory 7.0, Visual Patch 2.0 and TrueUpdate 2.0 though.

Yes, I'm awere of SUF7, but in one of my AMS apps i have the need to install, check if running, and uninstall some NT services.

Anyone has any ideas?

Thanks

Ideas about installint / uninstalling windows services?

Hi,

Does anyone has any ideas on how to install / uninstall services within AMS?, a DLL maybe?

Thanks for any idea...

Winternals has a tool called pskill to remove a running process. I think there may be a windows script .vbs .wsh that can start a process. These could be called from within AMS.

Try this link http://www.computerperformance.co.uk...i_services.htm

Also the command net stop <service name> or net start <service name>

Thanks

I was awere of the net atart/stop command, and the tutorial is great but...
It only covers start/stop issues not install/uninstall services.

What I would realy like to find is a DLL or EXE that will do all the above and can be run from within AMS

Thank for the help
