win32_delete_service — Deletes a service entry from the SCM database
Attempts to delete a service from the SCM database. Administrative privileges are required for this to succeed.
This function really just marks the service for deletion. If other processes (such as the Services Applet) are open, then the deletion will be deferred until those applications are closed. If a service is marked for deletion, further attempts to delete it will fail, and attempts to create a new service with that name will also fail.
servicenameThe short name of the service.
machineThe optional machine name. If omitted, the local machine will be used.
No value is returned.
Prior to version 1.0.0, returned WIN32_NO_ERROR on success, false if there is a problem with the parameters or a Win32 Error Code on failure.
A ValueError is thrown if the
value of servicename parameter is empty.
A Win32ServiceException is thrown on error.
