The first step is to specify which service you want to install. Everything else you do in the wizard refers to this service.
You can use the Component Wizard to control a single service at installation and uninstallation. To control another service in a new component, launch this wizard again.
Note:To control more than one service in the same component, you must modify the component’s Services node under the Advanced Settings area of the Components view.

Description |
Service is present on target system |
Select this option to control a service that you are certain will be installed on the target system when your setup runs or that will be when your product is uninstalled. |
Service Name |
Enter the name of the service. This is the name that InstallShield, Windows Installer, and the Service Control Manager (which maintains the system’s database of services and exposes an interface for controlling these services) use to identify a service—not its display name. |
Service is included in this setup |
Select this option to choose from among the services you have created in your setup project. Note:This option is disabled if none of your components has a service in its Services node under the Advanced Settings area in the Components view. |
