Hi there,

What do you mean with "start in"? The folder that's used as the default environment folder for the service, or do you mean the folder where the actual (your??) .exe is located?

If the latter is true, take a look here:

ALso, look at the tool called InstallUtil.exe in your .NET Framework folder.
