Exchange 2010/2013/2016: Starting Exchange Services with a simple command

As an Exchange Admin, you might be looking after 1 server or several hundred.

Sometime after a reboot you might notice that some of the services don't start. It is a daunting task to go manually start them all 1 at a time.

A simple way is to run the following command from an elevated PowerShell Window:

  • Get-Service *Exchange* | Start-Service

Some services like the Transport and Unified Messaging Services take a bit longer to start but the window will echo the starting of all services.
