installutil gets stuck when installing service

I have a problem with installing a service via installutil. I've installed / uninstalled a service several times via "installutil (\u) service.exe" without problems. Now I wanted to try some modified code and uninstalled the service again. But if I want to install the service again (via installutil service.exe) it gets stuck on "Installing service SERVICENAME..." (Normally it's installed in an instant but right now it runs for 10 minutes). I tried to install the same service on another PC - it installs without problems there.

Does anyone have a solution for this problem? (The service is uninstalled and doesn't appear in the services.msc).

If you uninstalled the service properly, I think you should check the status of other services. There may be another service stuck in the "Starting" status.
