Start-Service
Start-Service is a command line tool used in Windows operating systems to start a service that is currently not running. It is a part of the PowerShell scripting language.
- The Start-Service command allows users to initiate the operation of a specific service on their system.
- The command requires administrative rights to execute successfully.
- The name of the service that needs to be started is specified as an argument when using the Start-Service command.
- It can be used with both built-in Windows services and custom services created by users or third-party software.
- If the service is already running, nothing happens when executing Start-Service. Therefore, it is essential to check the status of the service before starting it.
- Start-Service can be combined with other commands, such as Get-Service, to obtain the current status of a service and then start it if necessary.
- This command is particularly useful for system administrators and power users who need to manage services and automate various tasks related to service operations.
