meaning of common suffix of services

Sound it out:

9d8ee

90, 80

98

It's an allusion to Windows 98 - the last Microsoft operating system that made any sense.

Okay, seriously ... The suffix has no special meaning, except maybe to the people who were doing the coding. It's just an internal name for a section of code. There's probably a story behind it, but we're not part of the 'in crowd.'

 

meaning of common suffix of services

I noticed 18 services have common suffix "9d8ee".

Anyone knows the meaning of this suffix?

I have no trouble with this, only being curious.

example:

(1) service name: AarSvc_9d8ee

display name: Agent Activation Runtime_9d8ee

command: C:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost.exe -k AarSvcGroup -p

(2) service name: WpnUserService_9d8ee

display name: Windows Push Notifications User Service_9d8ee

command: C:\WINDOWS\system32\svchost.exe -k UnistackSvcGroup

Windows 10 Home, version 1909, build 18363.535

Desktop PC (Dell inspiron 3250)

Thank you for any information ;-)

Hi noellapin,



Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.



Per-user services are services that are created when a user signs into Windows or Windows Server and are stopped and deleted when that user signs out. These services run in the security context of the user account. You can't view
the template services in the Services console, but you can see the user-specific per-user services - they are displayed using the <service name>_LUID format (where LUID is the locally unique identifier).

For example, you might see the following per-user services listed in the Services console:

CPDUserSVC_443f50

ContactData_443f50

However, let me help to point you in the right direction. I would suggest you to post your query in

TechNet Forums where you will find professionals with expertise on Service Control Manager for Windows 10 and that would be the appropriate forum.
