How to Add A Service in Windows 10, 8, and 7

By Timothy Tibbetts

on 06/15/2023

We already discussed how to delete a service in Windows 10, 8, and 7, so now we will discuss how to add a Service which is handy if you want to add or restore a Service.

Adding a service is easy using the Command Prompt or PowerShell as an administrator.

Type in sc.exe create SERVICENAME binpath= "PATH TO SERVICE"

Notes:
Replace SERVICENAME without spaces in the name
Be sure to leave a space after binpath=

For example, I can create a PowerShell shortcut by using:
sc.exe create PowerShell binpath= "C:\Windows\System32\Windows\PowerShellv1.0powershell.exe"



Open Services (Windows key + R and services.msc) and edit your new service however you like.

You can also delete any service.
