I have created a C# service using the VS2005 template. It works fine however the description of the service is blank in the Windows Services control applet.
Service descriptions are kept in the registry under LocalMachine\System\CurrentControlSet\services and then open the key for your service name, one of the keys is Description which holds the description text. Change that and restart the computer.
Create a ServiceInstaller and set the description
private System.ServiceProcess.ServiceInstaller serviceInstaller = new System.ServiceProcess.ServiceInstaller(); this.serviceInstaller.Description = "Handles Service Stuff";
