Answer 1

Using Windows Script:

Set ComputerObj = GetObject("WinNT://MYCOMPUTER")    
ComputerObj.Filter = Array("Service")    
For Each Service in ComputerObj    
    WScript.Echo "Service display name = " & Service.DisplayName    
    WScript.Echo "Service account name = " & Service.ServiceAccountName    
    WScript.Echo "Service executable   = " & Service.Path    
    WScript.Echo "Current status       = " & Service.Status    
Next

You can easily filter the above for the specific service you want.
