Show status of a Windows service from the command prompt
Is there any Windows command which will show the status of a single service?
For example, I want to know whether "IIS admin service" is running or not. If it is running the command ouput should be "running".
I tried sc query type= service state= all | find "IIS Admin Service"
which displayed the output:
"DISPLAY_NAME: IIS Admin Service"
I also tried net start "IIS Admin Service" | find "Running"
which displays:
The requested service has already been started.
More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 2182.
But it doesn't give me an output such as
"service name" = running / disabled / stopped
Is there a command which has output in this format?
Solution 1:
Use the service name and not the display name
sc query iisadmin
Solution 2:
You can use Powershell thus:
Get-Service -name 'IIS Admin Service'
