Stop-Service

Stop-Service is a command line tool available in Windows PowerShell, allowing users to stop a specific service running on their system. It provides a quick and efficient way to halt the operation of a service without requiring a graphical user interface. By specifying the name or display name of the service as an argument, the command will initiate the process of stopping the service. Stop-Service is particularly useful for system administrators who need to manage and control the execution of services on multiple machines remotely. This tool seamlessly integrates with other PowerShell cmdlets, enabling users to create scripts for automating service management tasks. However, it is important to note that stopping certain essential services could disrupt system functionality, so caution should be exercised when using this command.
