COM+ System Application

Default Description:

Manages the configuration and tracking of Component Object Model (COM)+-based components. If the service is stopped, most COM+-based components will not function properly. If this service is disabled, any services that explicitly depend on it will fail to start.

Additional Information:

You will receive, in the Event Log, an entry from "DCOM" complaining about not having this service running if disabled. If set to manual, many services report to it, so it will start anyway. For the fun of it, check:

"C:\Program Files\ComPlus Applications"

On your system, see if you have any installed "COM+" Applications. This service is required for System Event Notification.

Additional Reading:

None at this time.
