Thanks for the notes - I had the same idea too and saved it for my reference.
However, it was easier to download the agent zip install <https://www.gocd.org/download/#zip> and to use the batch scripts in the bin/ folder to install the windows service after modifying the properties in wrapper-config/wrapper.conf One problem I have now is that on the GoCD agents page the agent name for all agents is identical - the value is the machine hostname instead the windows service name! Any idea how to set the agent name displayed on the agents page?
