A Correct answer
Explanation

ServiceController is the .NET class designed to interact with and control existing Windows services, providing methods like Start(), Stop(), Pause(), and Continue() to send control commands. ServiceBase is the base class for creating custom services, while ServiceInstaller and ServiceProcessInstaller handle service installation - none of these control running services.
