Set-Service
Set-Service is a command line tool used in Windows operating systems to manage and control Windows services. It allows users to start, stop, pause, resume, restart, and query the status of services running on their system. The command is executed in the PowerShell environment, and it requires administrative privileges to make changes to services.
With Set-Service, users can change the startup type of a service, which determines whether a service automatically starts when the system boots up or is manually started by the user. This tool provides the ability to enable or disable services within the system easily. It can also be used to set recovery actions for services, allowing the system to automatically respond to service failures.
Additionally, Set-Service offers the capability to manage services on remote systems, enabling users to control services on multiple machines from a single command line interface. It provides flexible and powerful options to manage services effectively, making it a valuable tool for both administrators and advanced Windows users.
