Does TopShelf support this? Can we use sc.exe?

New version of TS does support it but not an easy update! And I don't see much value in keeping TS around either. I think is time for Host v2 :)

This should be configurable IMHO.

Also a new host can be built completely separate and released out of band :)

Right now our own Octopus scripts figure out if there is a service already installed

#get the path to the current service
    $servicePath =  "HKLM:SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Particular.Backend" 

    $serviceKey = get-itemproperty -path $servicePath -ErrorAction silentlycontinue
    $imagePath  = $serviceKey.psobject.properties | ?{ $_.Name -eq 'ImagePath' }

    $pos = $imagePath.value.IndexOf("NServiceBus.Host.exe") +  22

    $uninstallCommand = $imagePath.value.Substring(0, $pos).Replace('"','') + " /uninstall /endpointName:Particular.Backend /serviceName:Particular.Backend"
    "Uninstalling the previous service: " + $uninstallCommand

    iex $uninstallCommand | Write-Host

Do you guys see any merit in supporting this OOTB?

Ie make the /uninstall smart enough to uninstall the service even if it's in a different folder?
