I need to enable the "Allow service to interact with desktop" option in the service properties through command line. How to accomplish that. I tried the "sc" command. But I can't achieve what I need.

Have you tried "sc config servicename type= interact type= own"

Keep in mind that this feature is pretty much going away in newer versions of windows, for example in Vista it is ignored - services are no longer allowed to interact with the desktop for security reasons
