Excellent! Thank you :)

I have 3x Win2008R2 machines, and tried the following:

shutdownmon.exe -i
check service installed and start it, then stop it
shutdownmon.exe -u
reboot
check service uninstalled
shutdownmon.exe -i
reboot
check service installed and running

For all 3 machines it worked fine all round.

Thanks for the tip :)
