New-Service Options (Interact with desktop)

01-09-2008

Hi,

How can i get powershell's "New-Service" to automatically check the setting
that interacts with the desktop?

So far, i have
new-Service -name ServiceName -binaryPathName "PathHere" -displayName
"MyService" -startupType Automatic

After you create your service, retrieve it with Get-WmiObject and set the
DesktopInteract property accordingly.

i.e.
New-Service -Name ServiceName -BinaryPathName "PathHere" -DisplayName
"MyService" -StartupType Automatic
(Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_Service -Filter
"name='ServiceName'").DesktopInteract = $true
