I have created a Windows Service ( .NET Console App) and i do not know how to run my service.exe from a bash script.The problem lies in executing
[servicename].exe install
I must mention i have been following this Guide

I am first copying my Debug contents to a target folder , and then i install the service.

Shell script

sname="popwinservice.exe"
path="./Experiments/PopWinService/bin/Debug/*"
dest="D:/service"
cp -R $path $dest
cd $dest && (cmd  "$sname" install)

Output

$ ./script.sh Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.17134.648] (c) 2018 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

D:\service>

The last line does not execute $sname install, it just switches to cmd.

Could you confirm wether you are running wsl, git bash for windows or cygwin ? – Aserre Jun 11 '19 at 08:15
Reading from the `cmd /?` documentation, you should probably write `cmd /C "$sname install"` – Aserre Jun 11 '19 at 08:19
I am running git bash for windows.I have also tried using `/C` – Bercovici Adrian Jun 11 '19 at 08:22
