How to programmatically disable a Windows XP print spooler service in C #

Question

I need to write a small console application (patch) that disables the print spooler service, performs several actions, and then starts the print spooler service. I would like to write this in C #. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

Perhaps you can do this with the ServiceController class:

ServiceController controller = new ServiceController("Spooler");
controller.Stop();
...
controller.Start();

Answer 2

net start spooler
net stop spooler
