Deleting Windows service

Recommended Posts

I'm putting this in Software, since I don't know where else to put it. I used to have Google Updater installed, but have uninstalled it long ago. I recently noticed (after using WinPatrol for the first time), that there is still a Google Updater service installed. It's set to manual and isn't currently running, but I'd like to delete it since obviously it is no longer necessary. How do I go about doing that?

Thanks, but when I tried step 1, I got an error saying that "'GoogleUpdaterService' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file." As for step 2, there is no file on my system with that name, or anything with the word "Google" in it.
