Try, on the command line:
sc query
and look through that. You could >redirect to a file, as so:
sc query > output.txt
and use a text editor to search through it (And seeing as this creates a comprehensive list of processes, you could keep it around)
Bonus point: If you have a version of grep installed, either from cygwin, or unxutils, or wherever, try:
sc query | grep -i -A 1 "short name"
trying this with uxsms
, the DWM service, I get
SERVICE_NAME: UxSms
DISPLAY_NAME: Desktop Window Manager Session Manager
To create a nice listing, you could use
sc query | grep -A 1 "SERVICE_NAME" > Services.txt
NOTE: You'll likely need an elevated command prompt (right click => "Run as Administrator") to execute this command
the sc
command is what you want, specifically sc delete
C:\Users\Jeff>sc delete
DESCRIPTION:
Deletes a service entry from the registry.
If the service is running, or another process has an
open handle to the service, the service is simply marked
for deletion.
USAGE:
sc delete [service name]
