    There are typically three steps to actually creating the service:

    First, actually create the service:

    /c sc create “$(serviceName) $(serviceNameSuffix)” binPath= “$(servicePath)”

    enter image description here

    Second, configure the user and password:

    /c sc config “$(serviceName) $(serviceNameSuffix)” obj= “$(account)” password= “$(password)” start= auto

    enter image description here

    Third, start the service:

    enter image description here

    As you can see, you’re simply using a Window’s command prompt to do each of these. Whatever you can do at a command prompt, you can do in Presto.
