[wix-users] Stop & Start Services

[Ven H]

Thank you. But I am looking for more clarity. If I have to ServiceControl
element, it lets me stop and start immediately, but not stop during
beginning of installation and start at the end of installation. This is
what I am looking for.

Regards,
Venkatesh
