Windows Service Wrapper in less restrictive license

Github All Releases NuGet Build Status Gitter License

WinSW is an executable binary, which can be used to wrap and manage a custom process as a Windows service. Once you download the installation package, you can rename WinSW.exe to any name, e.g. MyService.exe.

Why?

See the project manifest.

Supported platforms

WinSW offers executables for .NET Framework 2.0, 4.0 and 4.6.1. It can run on Windows platforms which have these versions of .NET Framework installed. For systems without .NET Framework, the project provides native 64-bit and 32-bit executables which are based on .NET Core 3.1.

More executables can be added upon request.

Download

WinSW binaries are available on GitHub Releases and NuGet.

Usage

WinSW is being managed by configuration files: Main XML configuration file and Main YAML configuration file.

Your renamed WinSW.exe binary also accepts the following commands:

  • install to install the service to Windows Service Controller. This command requires some preliminary steps described in the Installation guide.
  • uninstall to uninstall the service. The opposite operation of above.
  • start to start the service. The service must have already been installed.
  • stop to stop the service.
  • stopwait to stop the service and wait until it's actually stopped.
  • restart to restart the service. If the service is not currently running, this command acts like start.
  • status to check the current status of the service.
    • This command prints one line to the console.
      • NonExistent indicates the service is not currently installed
      • Started to indicate the service is currently running
      • Stopped to indicate that the service is installed but not currently running.

Most commands require Administrator privileges to execute. Since v2.8, WinSW will prompt for UAC in non-elevated sessions.
