How can I restart a windows service programmatically in .NET

Question

How can I restart a windows service programmatically in .NET?
Also, I need to do an operation when the service restart is completed.

Answer 1

Call Environment.Exit with an error code greater than 0, which seems appropriate, then on install we configure the service to restart on error.

Environment.Exit(1);

I have done same thing in my Service. It is working fine.
