Adding a service to an existing installation

[Picoware]

Hi,
i have read that is possibile to update an existing service but i need to add a service to an application already installed such as new feature of the program.
It is possible?

Thank's in advance

Yes, you can install new services. Just install it like you would in an installer. Normally this means calling your service exe with special commandline arguments. Like "MyService.exe /install"

Specifically you would do this by including a batch file in your update and from that batch file calling the install argument for that executable.

Does that make sense?

I can give you more specific advice if you tell me what language you used for your service and how you typically install it.
