Re: Stop a Windows Service

Something along the lines of this should stop your service.

ServiceControll er serviceMonitor = new ServiceControll er("servicename ");
if( serviceMonitor == ServiceControll erStatus.Runnin g )
{
serviceMonitor. Stop();
}

Re: Stop a Windows Service

would it work a quick and dirty solution where you run a system command
called "net stop" ???
if it does...
system("net stop myownname")
