HACKER ALERT: This has not been tested with Vista. This method is known to work with 2000/XP/2003 Server.

The following will allow you to turn almost any .exe file into a service. Beware that some .exe files will need command line parameters passed to run with functionality.

Log in with administrative privileges. Also, verify that both INSTSRV.EXE and SRVANY.EXE are stored in a directory within the search path.

HACKER ALERT: Be careful were you put the SRVANY.EXE because it has to stay there for the service to run.

1. Open up an MS-DOS command prompt and navigate to where you saved the files (Download at the bottom).
2. Type the following command: INSTSRV [service name] SRVANY.EXE
where [service name] is the name of the service you are setting up. The service name can be whatever you want, but should be descriptive.
3. Remove service example:
INSTSRV [service name] REMOVE were [service name] is the service name.
4. Open up the Registry Editor (Click on the Start Button, select Run, and type REGEDIT)
bullet Locate the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\[service name]

  • From the Edit menu, select New, select Key, and name the new key Parameters
  • Highlight the Parameters key
  • From the Edit menu, select New, select String Value, and name the new value Application
  • From the Edit menu, select Modify, and type in the full path name and application name, including the drive letter and file extension
  • Example: D:\Program Files\Network Monitor\netmon.exe

5. Close the Registry Editor.

6. You may now start the service from services.msc.
