I used procrun to create a windows service and tried to install it using WIX. I have placed all the required registry keys at the relevant places. But the service is still not listed in the local services. Below is my code.

What am I doing wrong here? Please advice.
All registry keys under HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services are considered internal to Windows. The supported way in MSI to configure Windows Services is to use the Service* tables, like ServiceInstall.
