Hi all
I have a problem on one of my 2000 servers. An application that was
running as a service has been removed and when the
machine is restarted it throws an error about the service failing.
How can I remove this application from the list
of services? It's currently titled "?".
Thanks
Mark
 
Delete it from the registry service subkey
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services
