Just change the service logon information. Type services.msc locate your service --> right click --> properties --> logon

now the error is this "The HTTP request is unauthorized with client authentication scheme 'Anonymous'. The authentication header received from the server was 'Negotiate,NTLM'." I'm trying to change the .config file of the service but the service throw the exception "Configuration system failed to initialize"
