 Hello, i use Expert Bundle 0.2.8.11 (git-31e7b47fbebe8caf) and when I try
 to add Tor service on Windows 10 x64 1607 14393.576 with this command:
 c:\Tor>tor --service install -options -f C:\Tor\tor.conf

 I got this:
 Running on a Post-Win2K OS, so we'll assume that the LocalService account
 exists.
 Done with CreateService.
 Service installed successfully
 Service failed to start : Error Service under the command processing.

 In services app same error, but also i see this:
 "c:\Tor\tor.exe" --nt-service '''"-f" "C:\Tor\tor.conf"'''

 Maybe issue in quotes, but even if I manually edit this service in regedit
 to:

 "c:\Tor\tor.exe" --nt-service -f C:\Tor\tor.conf

 or

 "c:\Tor\tor.exe" --nt-service -f tor.conf

 I got another error:

 Service did not respond to the request in a timely manner.

 All other services running fine.
