Check if SERVICE is running VBNET

I want to know if a service is running (VBNET) to return a false or true value

I found other questions with this but the codes didnt work for me..

Thanks you!

Solution

  • Use service controller class to determine whether the service is running or not.

    For Each s As ServiceController In ServiceController.GetServices()
    If s.ServiceName = "yourservicename" AndAlso s.Status = ServiceControllerStatus.Running Then
           Return True
    End If
Next

    Hope this helps.
