Programmatically remove a service using C# [duplicate]

Answer 1

You can use the ServiceInstaller.Uninstall method in System.ServiceProcess.dll. For example:

ServiceInstaller ServiceInstallerObj = new ServiceInstaller(); 
InstallContext Context = new InstallContext("<>", null); 
ServiceInstallerObj.Context = Context; 
ServiceInstallerObj.ServiceName = "MyService"; 
ServiceInstallerObj.Uninstall(null); 

This method will attempt to stop the service first before uninstalling.
