vickerps 0 Posted April 29, 2004 Hi Guys Is there any way of changing a service startup under NT / XP. Net Start and stop are useful but they don't change the startup from being manual to automatic I am writing a script via autoit to change this but I do not want to use send commands. Is there anyway of changing via commandline or does anyone know of a util that can do this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bastel123 0 Posted April 29, 2004 Hi vickerps, you can change the service startup with the following registry settings: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\your_service] "Start"=dword:00000002 ---> automatic "Start"=dword:00000003 ---> manual "Start"=dword:00000004 ---> deactivated Sebastian Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
