    How to Delete/Remove a Windows Service?

    Posted In Tutorials - By NitiN Kumar Jain On Wednesday, November 19th, 2008 With 0 Comments
      



    Practically speaking, uninstalling an application should remove all its associated windows services and manually deleting windows services is not a preferred way to do.

    However, if it is necessary to manually remove a service, then follow the steps:

    1. Run regedit or regedt32.
    2. Find the registry entry at
      HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Services
    3. Find the service there and delete it.
    • You will have to reboot server manager before the list gets updated in.

    Hope it is useful to you.
