Hi Moshe;

  FWIW: I use NSSM. They have a new version out for W10 / W2016 and it also restarts your service if the O/S is interrupted or your Service App crashes. You can also communicate to the O/S as well through return codes now.

  I hear that many IT shops have used Rolands product as well and have been very pleased.

HTH

Regards ... Chris

No there is not.

Some people will recommend free tools like NSSM or SRVANY. The downside to those tools is that you are unable to respond to Stop/Pause/Resume commands. When the service is stopped due to user command or system shutdown, your app is terminated immediately even if it is in the middle of doing something.

A lot of people are using my PBNIServ tool. It works well but is geared more towards new development. I have a new tool under development that is easier to use and can be used with existing apps with little to no changes. It also has features like email notification.
