#57 : Find running Services with Powershell

Find the List of Running Services:

You can get list of all Processes with command like Get-Service. This CmdLet gives you list of all services which are running and stopped.
But sometimes, you might need to know a list of Service which is currently running.

Below Statements can be used for the same -

#--Get the Names of Running Services --#  
Get-Service | where { $_.Status -eq "Running" } | format-table Name  

Stopping a Service with Powershell :
 

Stopping a service is fairly simple with Stop-Service command. Let's do it with a service named "Spooler".

#--Get the Names of Running Services --#  
Stop-Service "Spooler"
