Running the Program as a Local Server

If running the program as a service is inconvenient, you can temporarily change the registry so that the program is run as a normal local server. Simply rename the LocalService value under your AppID to _LocalService and ensure the LocalServer32 key under your CLSID is set correctly. (Note that using DCOMCNFG to specify that your application should be run on a different computer renames your LocalServer32 key to _LocalServer32.) Running your program as a local server takes a few more seconds on startup because the call to StartServiceCtrlDispatcher in CAtlServiceModuleT::Start takes a few seconds before it fails.
