Services Utility: Application Management Service | Display Name (?): | Application Management | | Short Name (?): | AppMgmt | | Executable (?): | services.exe | | Library (?): | appmgmts.dll | | Depends On (?): | None. | | Supports (?): | None. | | Description (?): | Provides software installation services such as Assign, Publish, and Remove. | | OS (?): | 2000 Professional, XP Home/Professional, Vista Home/Business, 2000 Server, Server 2003, Vista Server | | Startup (?): | | Default | Home | Workstation | Server | Minimal | Tweaked | Automatic | | Manual | Manual | Manual | Manual | Manual | Disabled | Disabled | |
Explanation (?): |
The application management service is used for software installations and uninstallations. Applications such as Install Shield and the Windows Micrsoft Software Installer (MSI) will use this service in order to register applications. It is best to leave this service to manual as it will only be used when called for. On a corporate network this service could be used in stopping some applications from being installed when disabled.
On systems running Windows XP Home when uninstalling an application the uninstallation process may terminate with an error in the event log saying the application management service could not be found by the service control manager. This is because the service does NOT exist in XP Home and the uninstaller cannot proceed because it was not given information it needed to remove the application. Microsoft has a temporary fix on their website. |

"Why, of course, the people don't want war. Why would some poor slob on a farm want to risk his life in a war when the best that he can get out of it is to come back to his farm in one piece. Naturally, the common people don't want war; neither in Russia nor in England nor in America, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy or a fascist dictatorship or a Parliament or a Communist dictatorship[...] Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same way in any country." - Herman Goering: Intelligence office interview at Nuremberg, 1946/4/18
