Guest Joe Posted November 9, 2007 Posted November 9, 2007 I have a service supplied by a vendor and it has little documentation and the vendor has not answered my question as of yet. So I have been hacking at this service to get it to accept the startup parameters to customize the service. If I put the service executable in the "Path to executable" along with the startup parameters that we need, the service discards the parameters. However if I supply the same startup parameters in the box "Startup parameters" it works as expected. My only issue is that when I enter this information and start the service the setting isn't sticky. How can I enter this information so that it stays consistent across reboots? I take it that it is just a registry setting for that service, but damned if I can find it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
