Sometimes, You may find that window service's executable has been deleted but the service is still present in service viewer.

To forcefully uninstall a window service, you just need to do two small things.

  • Step 1: Close the service viewer window. Because the command which you will run in the second step will not work if the service viewer window is opened.
  • Step 2: once you have closed the service viewer window. Just run below command in command prompt. 
    sc delete cleanUpService
    Here cleanUpService is a dummy name. You need to replace it with your service name.

Now, if you re-open service viewer then you can find that service has been removed.
