 Replying to [ticket:10045 GITNE]:
 >
 > '''NOTE:''' Generally speaking, this Tor installing as a service feature
 should be revised because by convention it is an uncommon practice on
 Windows for tools to provide such a feature. Service installation
 functionality is provided by the {{{sc.exe}}} external command and the
 Windows Installer (and the PowerShell lately). The preferred way for
 software vendors to install services is via the Windows Installer during
 application setup.

 I'd be happy for us to consider this, but it should probably be a separate
 ticket. Also, like the other windows installation-issues tickets , it
 needs a migration path.
