File size: 4.3 MBService Protector will help your Windows Services achieve 100% uptime, even when they crash, hang, leak memory, or hog the CPU.

You can even plug in your own custom failure-detection script/program to identify “zombie services”, which seem to be running but are not doing what they are supposed to do.

Or automatically restart your Windows Service every night when no one is logged on, to cure memory leaks and other imperfections.

Email from Service Protector will let you know when it detects (and automatically resolves) problems with your Windows Services.

You will read the emails with a smile, knowing that your system experienced near-zero downtime without you having to remotely log in or babysit the software.

24/7 uptime: The builtin functionality will only take action when a Windows Service stops “abnormally” (i.

Extensibility: Add your own your own, customized failure detection plugins to detect and restart “zombie” Windows ServicesWorkflow: Run a batch file or program prior to restarting your Windows Service.

Scheduled restarts: Restart your Windows Service (or reboot the PC) at specific times. Minimize the effects of memory leaks, etc. and keep your service “fresh”!Daily/Weekly reports: Service Protector will email you summaries of restarts, crashes, etc.

Dismiss “Application Error” windows: These pesky “I have crashed!” message boxes can hold up the action.

Service Protector will automatically click them.
