I don't know if it's any use to you, but if you have an .exe besides the service .exe you could ask that .exe to stop the service using [UninstallRun]. Or if you don't want to use net.exe, you could include something like MS's sc.exe >>Windows handles the sort order. New things are sorted alphabatically >>AFAIK. Note that it sorts things including the '.lnk' extension, so >>'My Program' ends up below 'My Program Help' unless you use 'My >>Program ' to trick it. There is a registry key where Windows stores >>the sort order (I forgot the name) but there's no Windows API call to >>access/modify it. > >It's definately not alphabetical!!! I tried your list of icons and it ends up alphabetically in the menu (using XP). Maybe you installed to an existing menu? Windows remembers the settings chosen by the user. You could probably reset those settings by clearing the registry key I mentioned, but I'm not sure your users would be too happy about that. Greetings, Martijn Laan
