How Do I Delete a Service in windows 2000

To delete a service that has not been automatically removed by a software uninstall you need to edit the registry:

1- Start the registry editor (regedit.exe)
2- Move to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services key
3- Select the key of the service you want to delete

4- From the Edit menu select Delete
5- You will be prompted "Are you sure you want to delete this Key" click Yes
6- Exit the registry editor
7- There is also a utility that is supplied with the NT resource kit called INSTSRV.EXE that can be used to install and remove services

instsrv remove

Alternatively, also with the resource kit is a utility SRVINSTW.EXE that again installs and removes services, but with a GUI wizard format allowing you to select the service either locally or remotely.
