The manual asks me to extract the zip and run the HFS2SERVICE.EXE but this does not exist in the download.Hi! As described here, you can download HFS2SERVICE.EXE from here (more info here). You will find also more alternatives, here (SRVANY-NG and NSSM, both great alternatives to run HFS as a service).
@bmartino1 and anyone interested: I'm sorry, I still didn't have enough time to work on any of those templates (I'll try to make time to do it as soon as I get some free time off, but don't hold your breath).
