# Define service name wildcard
$serviceWildcard = "Soda PDF Desktop*"

# Stopping and removing matching services

# Get services matching the wildcard
$services = Get-Service | Where-Object { $_.DisplayName -like $serviceWildcard }

foreach ($service in $services) {
Write-Host "Stopping service: $($service.DisplayName)"
Stop-Service -Name $service.Name -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
Write-Host "Removing service: $($service.DisplayName)"
sc.exe delete $service.Name | Out-Null
