It appears I didn't read the docs properly when I write that bit - the dependencies parameter passed to CreateService() is supposed to be double-null terminated - a subtle point I missed :-( The attached patch fixes this. Harald - I can email an updated .exe if you want to test, otherwise, you should be able to use the current version if you cleanup the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\pg_autovacuum\DependOnService registry key.
