Copy the Jiwa folder

Locate the Jiwa 7 folder and copy it, naming it as desired.

Run sc.exe

Open a command prompt and type in the following:

sc.exe create "Jiwa Service 2" binPath= "C:\Program Files (x86)\Jiwa Financials\Service2\JiwaPluginSchedulerService.exe"

Configure the service

Open service.msc and locate your new service and right-click, choose "Properties" from the context menu and ensure the Start up type and Log On information as as desired.

Start the service

Open service.msc and start the service in the usual fashion.

Removing the service

sc.exe delete "Jiwa Service 2"

Then delete the contents of the "C:\Program Files (x86)\Jiwa Financials\Service2\" folder.
