How do I uninstall a Windows service if the files do not exist anymore?
Source : Stack Overflow [windows]
You have at least three options. I have presented them in order of usage preference.
Method 1 - Vous pouvez utiliser the SC tool (Sc.exe) included in the Resource Kit.
(included with Windows 7/8)
Open a invite de commandes and enter
sc delete <service-name>
Tool help snippet follows:
DESCRIPTION:
SC is a command line program used for communicating with the
NT Service Controller and services.
delete----------Deletes a service (from the registry).
Method 2 - use delserv
Download and use delserv ligne de commande utility. This is a legacy tool developed for Windows 2000. In current Window XP boxes this was superseded by sc described in method 1.
Method 3 - manually delete registry entries (Notez que this backfires in Windows 7/8)
Windows services are registered under the following clé de registre.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services
Search for the sub-key with the service name under referred key and delete it. (and you might need to restart to remove completely the service from the Services list)
