Sitecore: windows could not start the service on Local Computer

Sitecore: windows could not start the service on the Local Computer


I recently faced a problem where I was not able to start Sitecore services, it was throwing an error: Error 5: Access is denied. I thought it is because my user does not have administrative access as I was working on VM but later client confirmed that I have admin rights. I also tried to give permission to the folder where the service exists but still, it was throwing the same error.




Solution:
After some research I found the below solution:

  • Go to your service and right-click.
  • Go to properties and then go to on Log On tab.
  • Check Allow service to interact with desktop checkbox.


I hope it will work for you :)
