Windows 服务模板丢失？

For Visual Studio 2010 (10.0):

You can navigate to your Visual Studio install directory and run devenv /installvstemplates as admin

OR

You can follow the documentation on how to create a windows service without the template here

OR

You can perform the steps below to reset your Visual Studio templates:

1. Please open Windows Explorer, and navigate to <Visual Studio Installation Path>\Common7\IDE (by default is C:\Program Files \Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE);

2. Delete the ItemTemplatesCache, ProjectTemplatesCache folder;

3. Open Visual Studio Command Prompt (2010) under Start menu -> All Programs -> Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 -> Visual Studio Tools (run it with Administrator privilege: right-click the program -> Run as administrator);

4. Run the vbexpress /InstallVSTemplates switch

5. Run the vbexpress /Setup switch

OR

you can download template here.But oroblem is it is in vb.someone can convert it to c#.

This is not a direct solution to your problem but you should have a look at Topshelf which allows you to create an application that can run as a console app and also install/uninstall itself as a service. I have used it several times and it is much easier to use than a traditional windows service with .Net

It it a bad documentation of Microsoft that causes confusion to many including me. Here is how: in the New Project you will need to DRILL DOWN by selecting Templates->Visual C#-> Windows Desktop (click on it!) then you will find "windows service" template on the right. see attachment.

I hope it helps.

In Visual Studio 2015 I could not find the Windows Service template by selecting anything in left pane. Including c# -> Windows. However, when I query 'Windows Service' in the search bar at the top right corner, voilà, templates for c# or VB show up.

In addition to @SimperT 's answer : The same is the case with Visual Studio 2013 Just query Windows Service in the Top right search box and templates for Windows Service in VB and C# are displayed.

Hope it helped :)

For Visual Studio 2015 (14.0):

Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\Common7\IDE\ItemTemplates\CSharp\General\1033\Service and click Service.

File > New > Project > Templates > Visual C# > Windows > Classic Desktop > Windows Service

The confusion is because Microsoft's own walkthrough doesn't give the full path to the project template: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/zt39148a(v=vs.110).aspx

Go to File > New > Project; Templates > Visual C# > Windows > Classic Desktop; select Windows Service.

Make sure you have installed the ".NET desktop development package.

1- Click on the "open visual studio installer"

2- Check .net desktop development then click on modify!
