What is a Windows Service and how does its lifecycle differ
from a "standard" EXE?
Answer Posted / tarun singla
A windows service is an application which when installed on
a system, appears in the services console window
(services.msc). It is different from a standard exe in the
sense that we define/configure a time interval at which
this application would run on a regular basis. So this time
interval is taken care of by the Windows and it executes
that application at regular intervals. Whereas in a
standard exe is would not be the case. One has to click on
that exe each time he wishes to execute that application.
