This service outputs an event log to the SYSPROCOMMS file.

You can start, stop, restart and configure this service using the Services function in Windows:

Referencing

You should only update this file for temporary debugging purposes (i.e. not as a method to update values for the service).

Any temporary changes made to the configuration files are reset to their original installation values when this application is next updated. Because these temporary changes are not carried forward, forgetting that you made them could hamper troubleshooting efforts if unexpected issues arise.
