Install Windows Service On Windows Vista

Yes Vista sucks... I'm writing a Windows Service using .Net but getting security errors when trying to install with InstallUtil.exe.

How can I install the Windows Service successfully in Windows Vista?

Try running installutil.exe from an elevated cmd (search command prompt in start menu, right click, run as administrator).

  • Press the Start button
  • Type cmd in the search box
  • When Command Shell comes up right click, select Run as Administrator

Now you have command shell with full admin permissions. InstallUtil at will.
