Description

@RebeccaMahany

When testing v1.18.3, @James-Pickett and I both noticed that after remotely uninstalling launcher, the launcher service would start back up again.

@James-Pickett suggested the issue is that launcher exits before the Windows Service Manager fully receives the update that the launcher service should be in "manual" start mode, so the Service Manager restarts launcher -- i.e., we have a race between setting start mode to manual and calling os.Exit. We should update disableAutoStart on Windows to confirm with the Service Manager that the start mode has updated to "manual" before returning.

We don't think this bug is new to this release, so it won't prevent v1.18.3 from going out.
