Description

This cmdlet is only available on the Windows platform.

The Stop-Service cmdlet sends a stop message to the Windows Service Controller for each of the specified services. You can specify the services by their service names or display names, or you can use the InputObject parameter to pass a service object that represents the service that you want to stop.

Examples

Example 1: Stop a service on the local computer

PS C:\> Stop-Service -Name "sysmonlog"

This command stops the Performance Logs and Alerts (SysmonLog) service on the local computer.

Example 2: Stop a service by using the display name

PS C:\> Get-Service -DisplayName "telnet" | Stop-Service

This command stops the Telnet service on the local computer. The command uses Get-Service to get an object that represents the Telnet service. The pipeline operator (|) pipes the object to Stop-Service, which stops the service.

Example 3: Stop a service that has dependent services

PS C:\> Get-Service -Name "iisadmin" | Format-List -Property Name, DependentServices
PS C:\> Stop-Service -Name "iisadmin" -Force -Confirm

This example stops the IISAdmin service on the local computer. Because stopping this service also stops the services that depend on the IISAdmin service, it is best to precede Stop-Service with a command that lists the services that depend on the IISAdmin service.

The first command lists the services that depend on IISAdmin. It uses Get-Service to get an object that represents the IISAdmin service. The pipeline operator (|) passes the result to the Format-List cmdlet. The command uses the Property parameter of Format-List to list only the Name and DependentServices properties of the service.

The second command stops the IISAdmin service. The Force parameter is required to stop a service that has dependent services. The command uses the Confirm parameter to request confirmation from the user before it stops each service.

Notes

PowerShell includes the following aliases for Stop-Service:

  • Windows:
    • spsv

This cmdlet is only available on Windows platforms.

Stop-Service can control services only when the current user has permission to do this. If a command does not work correctly, you might not have the required permissions.

To find the service names and display names of the services on your system, type Get-Service. The service names appear in the Name column and the display names appear in the DisplayName column.
