SRVSTART Alternatives
SRVSTART is described as 'EXE is a Win32 executable and DLL which allows you to run commands as if they were Windows NT services. It also has some features to enhance the running of ordinary console commands (prompting for parameters etc)' and is an app in the os & utilities category. There are four alternatives to SRVSTART for Windows. The best alternative is NSSM - The Non-Sucking Service Manager, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like SRVSTART are Launcher Service, Winserv and Turbo Service Manager.

nssm is a service helper which doesn't suck. srvany and other service helper programs suck because they don't handle failure of the application running as a service. If you use such a program you may see a service listed as started when in fact the application has died.
Discontinued
Last release is from 2014, and last pre-release is from 2017, but it can still be downloaded from the official website.
Launcher Service lets you run any program as a Windows Service.

Good alternative and includes source code
Winserv is an utility that can create an NT service that runs any application. When the application exits, the service becomes stopped. It is also able to manage local and remote NT services that were not created by winserv.
