Windows services

[c_andy_man]

I have installed a Windowsservice on Wine.

This Programm shows a symbol in the taskbar-infofield
I want this service permanently to run but wright now the Taskbar-icon only shows, when i run another wine application like "wine notepad".
I also tried "wineserver -p" to make the service persistent.
Still the service will shut down when i close notepad
What can I do?

Nothing. This is by design, Wine kills all services when you exit last GUI app.

So the only possibility to keep the service running is by running an invisible GUI accordingly?

Pretty much.
