I have a windows service project implementation that I am trying to install as network service.
process = new ServiceProcessInstaller();
process.Account = ServiceAccount.NetworkService;
however whenever I try to start the service I get :
System error 5 has occurred.
Access is denied.
This comes after running the net start MyService command in the visual studio command prompt which is running as administrator by the way.
Any help on how to get this to work? Thanks.

The NetworkService account is a predefined local account used by the service control manager. This account is not recognized by the security subsystem, so you cannot specify its name in a call to the LookupAccountName function. It has minimum privileges on the local computer and acts as the computer on the network.
I would check that the Network Service account has permissions to execute. Steps to check:
