The AutoStartServices parameter controls whether to start the virtual services when the first virtual application starts.

ThinApp sets an initial value that starts the virtual services that are installed with the automatic startup type option. The virtual services start when the user runs the first parent process.

Preventing a Virtual Service From Starting

When applications install a service, but do not use it, you can modify the AutoStartServices parameter to prevent the start of the virtual service and save time.
