Maybe you could be more specific and show some example code that is
not working ...
I guess that would be much more informative and the results would be a
lot better.

to answer questions with enough input to be parsed. What did you do so
far? Minimal example showing error? Without such info it is hard to
help. Saying just that you did it with Delphi leaves too much to
guess...

You need to open access to the Service Control Manager using the Win32
OpenSCManager() function requesting SC_MANAGER_ENUMERATE_SERVICE
rights, then you can enumerate the installed services using the
EnumServicesStatus() or EnumServicesStatusEx() function.
