You can start, stop, pause, resume, or restart a service one of two ways:

1. Using Services
2. Using the command line

Using Services
1. Open Services.
2. In the details panel, do one of the following:

Click the service, and then, on the Action menu, click Start, Stop, Pause, Resume, or Restart.
Right-click the service, and then click Start, Stop, Pause, Resume, or Restart.

Notes

To start a service with startup parameters, right-click the service, click Properties, type the parameters in Start parameters, and then click Start. These settings are not persistent; they are used only once, and then the default settings are restored. (A backslash (\) is treated as an escape character; type two backslashes for each backslash in a parameter.)
