Creating Windows Services

[minckle]

Hi, I've created a Windows Service in Delphi and its all working fine. To install the service I use a batch file containing the following code.

cd C:\directory
filename.exe /install

It installs ok but sets the 'startup' type to 'Manual'. Is there a way to set it to 'Startup' = 'Automatic'

thanks

Set StartType of your (TService) to stAuto and recompile your application.

add the /silent switch to your command ie.

filename /install /silent
