cannot check to run as service on control panel

Hello,

I want to setup Apache to run automatically.
But in the xampp control panel , I cannot check the "run as service" checkbox.
I know I need to run xampp-control.exe as Administrator.
UAC is off. And my windows account is a member of Administrator group and
logging-on to windows domain.
Any suggestion please.

version info:
xampp-portable-win32-5.6.15-2-VC11-installer.exe
XAMPP control panel v3.2.2
windows 7 64 bit

Regards,
Aki.

Autostart by Windows service is disabled for the portable versions. Windows services need specific drive letters to map on. Portable versions can be used on portable devices where static drive letters are not always guaranteed.
