The Service SID dialog box lets you specify the appropriate service security identifier (SID) that you want to add. This dialog box opens in the following scenario:

•

You are configuring a service in the Services view, or in the Advanced Settings area for a component in the Setup Design view (installation projects only) or the Components view.

•

The Add a service SID type to the process token option is selected in the Configuration Type setting for an event in the Configure Settings category of settings in the right pane, and you click the ellipsis button (...) in the Arguments setting for that event.

Select the appropriate option.

Note that if multiple services are hosted in the same process and one service has the restricted service SID, all services must have the restricted service SID.

The change takes effect the next time that the system is started.
