Script for locating "Service" locations in Windows

Question

I am trying to write a script in windows command prompt (windows 8), to find out the directory location of services running. For example

net start // gives all the running services. I want to know the location of those services

Help required!

The following command is using PowerShell in order to display what you want:

powershell.exe -noexit "Get-WmiObject win32_service | select Name, DisplayName, State, PathName"

Just copy and paste it into a "cmd" window.
It will display you the service name, the display name, the state and the path to the executable.

Works like a charm! thanks, is there any command for non power shell cmd?@Patrick – Muhammad Suleman May 16 '15 at 10:31
PowerShell is the easiest way. I doubt that there is a way to approach this with a single "cmd" command. – May 16 '15 at 10:33
