When the startup type of the service is set to "Automatic (Delayed start)", the value of DelayedAutostart is set to 1 HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\\DelayedAutostart

To increase the default delay of 120 seconds, right click the registry key and add new key AutoStartDelay (DWORD (32-bit)

      **HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\<service name>\AutoStartDelay**

Its value can be set to decimal 240 for example.
