Your ServiceInstall says Name="TestWindowService" but your
ServiceControl says Name="TestWindowService.exe", so if the name is
actually TestWindowService your ServiceControl isn't going to do
anything with it. That's why you get the error and probably the other
unexpected behvior too.

Sometimes Windows marks a service for deletion after restart.
In this case you would see the service in the services UI until after
restart.

You've set Win64="Yes" on your components, thus marking it as a file that
targets 64-bit architecture. You wouldn't install such a thing into the x86
Program Files Folder, since that folder is for 32-bit architecture files. Is
your file truly compiled for x64? And if so, should it be?

It looks like your repair/minor upgrade is replacing the good values
with blanks. Which makes sense. The verbose log file should show you the
value for those properties. If you don't remember them they'll be lost.
