Windows service name

[rlebeau]

The name of the service can't contain spaces

There is no such restriction at the OS level. The only characters that can't be used in a service name are '/' and '\'. All other characters are fair game, including spaces. When I browse through the installed services on my machine, there are a number of services that have spaces in their names.

We should, in theory, follow these rules

There is no rule that says spaces can't be used in service names.
