In this article we are going to look at how to Start a stopped windows service using the command line. \u00a0This article assumes that you don’t know the exact name of the service and will need to find that out first.<\/p>\n

Step 1 – List Inactive Services<\/h2>\n

We will need to list all services which are currently not running on the server to find out the service name which we need to start. \u00a0This can be done from a command prompt using the sc query command. \u00a0Type in the following command:<\/p>\n

sc query type= service state= inactive<\/code><\/p>\n

A list of all the stopped services will be presented to you. \u00a0Make note of the Service Display Name<\/strong> of the service that you wish to start. \u00a0In this example the DISPLAY_NAME is “ScreenConnect Client (1913a3e3a609643d)”<\/p>\n

\"Start<\/a><\/p>\n

Step 2 – Start the Service<\/h2>\n

Using our example type in the following command:<\/p>\n

net start \"ScreenConnect Client (1913a3e3a609643d)\"<\/code><\/p>\n

If the service name has spaces in it you will need to place it in quotation marks as above.<\/p>\n
