Re: Modifying the "Path to executable" of a windows service
There is also [this approach seen on SuperUser](https://superuser.com/a/252850) which uses the `sc` command line instead of modifying the registry:
```
sc config binPath=
```
Note: the space after `binPath=` is important. You can also query the current configuration using:
```
sc qc
```
This displays output similar to:
[SC] QueryServiceConfig SUCCESS
SERVICE_NAME: ServiceName
```
TYPE : 10 WIN32_OWN_PROCESS
START_TYPE : 2 AUTO_START
ERROR_CONTROL : 1 NORMAL
BINARY_PATH_NAME : C:\Services\ServiceName
LOAD_ORDER_GROUP :
TAG : 0
DISPLAY_NAME :
DEPENDENCIES :
SERVICE_START_NAME : user-name@domain-name
```
```
sc config
```
