I've occasionally run into issues using sc to stop services, as not all of the processes would stop (we have multiple background method servers and method servers running on each server) before it returned. I wonder if using Power shell to do this would help. Right now we're using a Java program that queries sc to see if all of the processes are stopped (and does some other stuff, such as pausing after stopping the processes to allow files to be released before attempting to delete them).
