Path to the executable of a windows service

问题

How can I get the path to the executable of a specific windows service from another program ? Unfortunately the class ServiceController (System.ServiceProcess) doesn't provide a method or property for that !

回答1:

There's always the WMI class Win32_Service as described here, specifically the PathName.

This works:

ManagementClass mc = new ManagementClass("Win32_Service");
foreach(ManagementObject mo in mc.GetInstances())
{
    if(mo.GetPropertyValue("Name").ToString() == "<Short name of your service>")
    {
        return mo.GetPropertyValue("PathName").ToString().Trim('"');
    }
}

You can obtain them from here using the Registry in HKLM:

 System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Service

Look for the ImagePath value.
