Hi,

How can I start/stop a window service in my driver?
Similar with net start or net stop.
Are there any sample codes?

Thank You!

You cannot do this from kernel mode

Hi vincent,

As far as I know you can not start/stop services from drivers.
But if your driver is dependent on any service you can change the
load order of your driver so that it will get loaded only after the
required service is started.
