  1. Since Visual Studio 2012, the traditional Windows setup project has been removed. WiX is the recommended alternative, and has been used by Microsoft to package products like Office, SQL Server and Visual Studio. WiX, (Windows Installer XML) is a free open source toolset by Microsoft that builds Windows installer packages from XML source code.
  2. I am trying to create a WiX MSI installer for my Windows service that will install the service, but not start it. I can't seem to find anywhere that explains how to do this or if it's possible. I tried to remove the ServiceControl I had for starting the service as well as toggling the Start attribute on the ServiceInstall without any luck.

  5. Thanks for the article. As a note: adding the node in Windows 8.1 caused many headaches. I don't have time right now to research why, but it made the service get 'stuck' during the uninstall process requiring manual removal of the service, reboots, etc. February 20, 2015 at 5:03 AM.

Wix Installer Windows Service Tutorial

I would combine the two Service Control elements to become:

Although that probably isn't your problem. Does the installer attempt to start it during the install? Do you get an error message? If you try to start it after the install do you get an error message? Have you profiled / debug the service itself to make sure you aren't missing and dependencies or configuration data or throwing any exceptions in the code?
