Multi-instance support for windows service
we have enabled multi-instance support for a windows service application of ours, it is getting created with the same default name under services.msc, instead of the instance name we get from end-user.
this project has a installer class integration as well.
please suggest.

Hi @sysadmin-blr ,
See your issue can be solved by going through the below links, looks like you have to handle your own through custom action to create a unique name.
