A fixlet was deployed to one of our customers to kill a service and we cannont reverse the effect. Can someone help me please. With administrative rights it cannont be restarted and we looked at the registry entries for the service on 2 different machines and can not divulge any differences. See below.

I don’t know enough about IIS or secedit to know if there is some specific issue here, but I am wondering about things like spaces, file permissions, file formats, etc.

Can you take the file on the working system, copy it to the non-working system, and run the secedit and see if things are fixed?
