If this is ATL-based, the startup code looks for a set of registry entries to see whether it's supposed to run as an out-of-process COM server or a service.

When I use <ServiceInstall> along with <ServiceDependency>, it "installs" but does not start. I tried to manually start the service, but I get an error saying that the service is taking too long to respond. Everything that the service depends on has been installed, so am not sure why it won't start. If anyone has any insight I would be greatly appreciative. Thanks for your time, Matt P.S.
