Is this a custom account you created? Does it actually have a profile

Yes, that folder does exist. When started manually (with that
account) the Service works; the Service fails, as noted above, when
started automatically after reboot.
Right. Boot-start services do not get environment variables. Those
aren't set until session manager runs, which (I believe) doesn't happen
until login.
You might consider creating an HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE registry entry to hold
the path, then shove the proper value into the registry when the service
is installed. Installation should happen during a session. Don't use
HKEY_CURRENT_USER, because that doesn't exist until after login, either.
OK, that explains it. Thank-you very much for your assistance. -- jv
