ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER |

When a process uses the OpenSCManager function to open a handle to a service control manager database, the system performs a security check before granting the requested access. All processes are permitted SC_MANAGER_CONNECT, SC_MANAGER_ENUMERATE_SERVICE, and SC_MANAGER_QUERY_LOCK_STATUS access to all service control manager databases. This enables any process to open a service control manager database handle that it can use in the OpenService, EnumServicesStatus, and QueryServiceLockStatus functions. Only processes with Administrator privileges are able to open a database handle used by the CreateService and LockServiceDatabase functions.
The returned handle is only valid for the process that called the OpenSCManager function. It can be closed by calling the CloseServiceHandle function.
