Frequently Asked Questions - Exe To Service

What is Exe To Service?
Exe To Service allows you to install any Windows executable, Visual Basic or Java script as a service. Windows services are background processes that do not interfere with the logged user's environment. Windows services are controlled by the Service Control Manager. You can start them on boot before the user logs on and control their execution remotely. Exe To Services also installs a simple service scheduler. Thus, you can also start services at a specified time.

You may want to install long-running mission-critical programs as services. By converting them to services, you receive full control over their execution, you do not allow a logged user to interact with these programs and you can run them in any security context regardless of the permissions granted to the currently logged user.
