We use installers so that users can follow prompts to get their software 
installed rather than having to rely on manual placing of the folders, and 
especially with services, if I'm not mistaken, it takes the command line to 
register a service for the first time.  Not many average users would want to do 
that.  Event logs are the monitoring mechanisms Windows provides for folks who 
are interested in what's going on, whether things succeeded or failed, and in 
certain situations, if one understands how to interpret them, they can be used 
to determine the source of a problem.  I use them a lot to determine things.  
More commonly on servers though they're used.

Again, I've read but I can't understand, for example, when installer class must 
be called, why do we use ınstaller, why do we use event logs etc.

Hello:
What language are you doing this in? c#? If so, you can create a windows 
service application through the visual studio, under the c# treeview just arrow 
over to service application, I believe it is called, enter the name and off you 
go. There is some todo information in the source showing you where to add 
different code, and you would have a starting point (through the .net framework 
sdk) to look up the classes for more information.

Hi all
Wherever I looked, I couldn't find a satisfying result. If you have, can you 
send me a document, e-book etc. about it, but detailed.
Thanks for all
