Hey, did you managed to create the service? I did and It still doesnt work.

Zadaná služba již existuje. - ( The service already exists.)
Instance této služby je již spuštěna. - (An instance of this service is already running.)

Hey, I had the same issue + also a similar issue with the nssm start command returning "SERVICE_PAUSED" error. Did some web crawling and saw that there were a lot of people with the same issue that didn't have a clear solution. I managed to fix this myself by editing the service settings, dropping what I did below in case it will help you too!

• If you've renamed your bot file to anything other than JMusicBot.jar (version number doesn't matter), change commands as needed.
• Launch cmd prompt as admin (right click -> Run as administrator) or else you won't have perms to start or add anything.
• Make sure that the nssm executable (.exe file) is in the same folder as JMusicBot.jar (you may have to go into the nssm files and drag the file out into the main bot folder).
• Set working directory to cd <directory address of the .jar file here>
• Install as usual with nssm install JMusicBot java -jar JMusicBot.jar (no need to append version numbers to the .jar file name).
• DON'T start the service yet - if you already have it started, stop it first with nssm stop JMusicBot

Fix starts here!

• Run nssm edit JMusicBot to bring up the GUI for editing the service. You should see three editable text fields pop up.
• For the first field, "Path", set this to the path of your java.exe. This is probably in your program files so you can find it in your C:\ drive.
• For the second field "Startup Directory", set this to the path of the working directory folder (i.e the folder where your JMusicBot file is), something like C:\Users\<User Name>\Documents\<Folder Name>
• For the last field "Arguments", you want to append -jar and set it to the exact path of your music bot .jar file, so something like -jar C:\Users\<User Name>\Documents\<Folder Name>\JMusicBot-0.3.9.jar. If you've renamed your .jar file, change this accordingly.

This worked for me, thank you!

It didn't work until I set up java and nssm as permanent admin

I believe this can be bypassed if you run both programs as admin locally, as well as the initial terminal in cmd
