Many applications don't act well if the computer is restarted unexpectedly and losing unsaved progress is just one effect. With AppToService, you can launch any application on your computer as a service and as a result, the applications will benefit from the same advantages of services. In case you don't know how services work, this means that your applications will be able to survive log offs and user switches and they will behave better if you restart your machines suddenly.

The software is free to try, without any functionality restrictions. Downloading and installing its core components doesn't involve any complex settings and it shouldn't take more than a minute. You don't have to sacrifice a significant amount of disk space or RAM and there is no need to install any special tools or drivers.

AppToService is essentially a Unicode console, but even inexperienced users can master this software, thanks to its comprehensive documentation. Although it places a single shortcut on your desktop, the application has two executables. The main one will launch the aforementioned console, while the other will open another console, in which you only need to press the numbers that correspond to specific instructions categories. You will find a wide range of explanations and examples. Opening the software's HTML manual is another possibility.

The software has many uses. For example, you can run certain monitoring applications as services, if you want them to start automatically each time you turn on your computer. It is also possible to run applications as services for specific user accounts. The possibilities are numerous. All commands are listed and explained, so it shouldn't take long to master the software.

With AppToService, you can have more control over your applications. Deciding which ones to launch, when, in what conditions or for which user account are just a few examples.

Pros

You can run applications as services. The software's functionality is quite flexible. It comes with comprehensive help materials, to help you get started.

Cons

Despite the software's simplicity, you still need to spend some time with its help files.
