title: Is there a replacement for a Windows Service Application in Visual Studio Community 2017?
body: <p>I want to make a windows service but I do not see a template or reference to anything like that in Visual Studio Community Edition 2017. Is there something else that replaced windows services, or has the nomenclature changed?</p>
  
  <p>If not, is there a place I can download a windows service application template for c# .net 4.5?  When I look online I do not see any templates for C# except "xUnit Test Project Template"</p>
  
  <p>Where are the templates?</p>
  
  <p>EDIT:</p>
  
  <p>It turns out my installation did not complete. It was giving an error during installation so I had to delete some temporary files and then it finished installing, and now all of the templates including windows service are there.</p>
