AppToService

AppToService is a lightweight application designed to help you run standard tools that you have on your computer run as Windows services, despite the fact that there is no user logged on the computer or in a specific account.

The installation is quick, straightforward and does not require any special attention from your part. Upon launch, you are welcomed by a command prompt-like interface, an aspect that can intimidate certain users who do not have posses advanced technical skills.

Then again, you should bear in mind that you can find out the commands associated with running the application in the splash screen as well as the help section. While using commands gets things done faster in general, it would have been nice if the tool included a GUI so that you can preview all installed applications and select the ones to install as services without too much hassle.

It is worth mentioning that the utility gives you several installation options, a feature that can come in handy if you want to run apps with certain parameters. Among the options you can select, you can count same as the AppToService prefix, client’s arguments, delay the execution, force client to close, password and username, so on and so forth.

The indirect advantage of having apps run as Windows services is that they no longer need you to be logged in order to run smoothly. Consequentially, you can have various tedious and long tasks get completed automatically when you are away from the computer. Moreover, your apps can now avert any issues that typically come with unattended logoff and login sequences.

In the eventuality that you want to have various applications run in the background and without your intervention when you are away from the computer, then perhaps AppToService could come in handy.
