Windows Service Start Failure

[Ralphie G]

I installed NextPVR in my Win 7 pc and after I first configured it in the local host, it was working, albeit with some minor picture breakup/pixelation in the channels I tuned into.  I closed the application and when I tried to open it back up, the following message popped out:

"Cannot start service from the command line or a debugger.  A Windows Service must first be installed (using installutil.exe) and then started with the ServerExplorer, Windows Services Administrative tool or the NET START command."

Up until a week ago I had NextPVR installed in a Win 10 pc, and I didn't have any problems there, until that pc crashed altogether.  I'm suspecting that the root of my problem now is that I went from one pc with an Win 10 OS to another one with a Win 7 OS.  Any input that can help me in finding a solution to this issue would be greatly appreciated.

That sounds like you tried to run NextPVRService.exe. It can't be run that way. You go into the windows Services control panel, and start/stop from there. (or reboot, and it'll auto restart)
