Hello,
My platform is:
Windows 10 pro 64 bit polish language
When I try to use

list(psutil.win_service_iter())
psutil.win_service_get("alg")

I get exception:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<input>", line 1, in <module>
  File "C:\Python34\lib\site-packages\psutil\_pswindows.py", line 342, in win_service_iter
    for name, display_name in cext.winservice_enumerate():
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xb3 in position 2: invalid start byte
