Service Control Command
Updated: 18 Jun 2008
Have you ever wanted to start, stop, delete, create, or configure a service in your batch script? The "SC" command will allow you to do this and more.
Here are a few examples of how you can use this command:
| Start a service | sc start ServiceName |
| Stop a service | sc stop ServiceName |
| Delete a service | sc delete ServiceName |
| Create a service | sc create ServiceName binPath="C:\Program Files\InstallDir\Service.exe" start=auto |
| Configure a service | sc config ServiceName <options> |
For more information about the settings you can make when creating and configuring services, go to a command prompt and type "sc create /?" and "sc config /?"
