Unhandled exceptions in windows service

I created a windows.net C # service that runs several tasks. I turned on exception handling, but I would like to configure a global handler to detect unhandled exceptions in the Windows service, how can I do this?

You could use AppDomain.UnhandledException. However, in your case, your entire call to your service can be wrapped in a try / catch block. Since you did not provide details about what you plan to do with this unhandled exception, your correct path, I think, in this case should resolve the service to fail .

try
{
   MainCallToYourService();
}
catch (Exception)
{
   //it probably too late to do anything useful here, try to log and die
}

Keep in mind that the problem is that in many cases your application state is corrupted by the time this event occurs. It’s best to try registering and logging out.
