WindowsScResource

All Cookstyle Cops

The department is: Chef/Modernize

The full name of the cop is: Chef/Modernize/WindowsScResource

The sc_windows resource from the sc cookbook allowed for the creation of windows services on legacy Chef Infra Client releases. Chef Infra Client 14.0 and later includes :create, :delete, and :configure actions without the need for additional cookbook dependencies. See the windows_service documentation at https://docs.chef.io/resources/windows_service for additional details on creating services with the windows_service resource.
