Hi,

I've created a basic windows service installation using Inno Setup. both install and uninstall works properly.

However, I'm having issues with upgrading the service executable. it is needed to stop the service, and only ofter the service is completly stopped- the new executables should be placed in the target folder.

how can I execute a service-stop command and wait for the service to actually stopped before the file copy step is initiate?

thanks!
