Select each service in this file and enter its load-ordering group and dependency information. Having dependencies and membership in a load-ordering group means that the service requires other services to be running before it can be started. (Service load-ordering groups are listed under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\ServiceGroupOrder. The service’s Start Type property determines when it loads within its group.)

Description

Service

Select each of the services that you entered in the Services list of the Service Executable panel and then specify its load-ordering and dependency information.

Load-Ordering Group

Enter the name of the load-ordering group of which this service is a member. Leave this field blank if the service does not belong to a group.

Dependencies

List the service’s dependencies in the edit field. A service’s dependency can be another service—in which case enter the service’s name, or it can be a load-ordering group—in which case precede the name of the load-ordering group with a plus sign (+) so that the SCM can distinguish it from a service.

Separate each dependency with a comma.
