Changing the log on properties for a Service




Modifying the log on properties for a service is common when the service requires network resources (i.e.. a shared folder). In which case the service must run under and account that has access rights to the network resource.

  1. From the Start Menu –> Run, then type “compmgmt.msc”
  2. Expand Services and Applications and Click on Services
