Found no suitable way to achieve this. One can write a file to hold the variables and their values when checking the conditions, and read it back when actually starting the service, but this seems a clunky approach to me. > > If not, I’d lean towards one (which?) of the errorlevel-using ones, > because otherwise we’d have to run the detection code twice.
