This is what i got from another script by searching tru this forums.

Ofc it can add services and also progs to start if it fails.

I want to create a real service - one that answers to the control commands from windows.

(Start?,Pause?,Stop?)

(myprob: it starts the service but it doesnt answer to control commands from windows. So how to receive those and how to "answer" ?)

can anyone help?

The Scriptsnippets i showed are exactly copied from that thread.

It also does not what i want.

And its always the same issues with "other programs" i cant use them

I have only use for windows-integrated tools.

thanks anyways. anyone else with ideas on this? it could be really useful... since autoit programming is getting more and more complex and there'r coming more and more prof. programs up with this.
