Serve Account doesn't get updated

[jabteles]

A first deploy of a Windows Service specifies a "Run As Username".

Resolved with PR #35.

Check the 'Recreate service' flag under the installation section. This will delete and recreate the service if it already exists.

@Dejulia489 Did you had the opportunity to check on this? Should I open a new Issue?
