First up, open your Service Manager on your local computer and connect it to the remote computer...

Find the relevant service and make sure you can stop it and restart it by this means. If you can, then great, you should be able to stop it using code. If you can't stop it, it's because you don't have the relevant permissions so you'll have to provide a means to stop/start it using a different user token.

I've tried on all severs in all directions and from several different workstations. I...

The output for NET START is below as well. The Services list in the W2K administrator...

Hi everybody, My problem seems a bit clichè but I could not work around. Well I read lots of MSDN papers and discussions, but my problem is a bit different from them.

I wish to write a small application that will allow me to start and stop a windows service on another server. Currently, I have to connect to the server using Remote Desktop Connection and then log into the server using a special login and password. Then I can open the services applet and start and stop the server. This is very inconvenient for debugging the service. What I would like to do, from my dev box, is somehow connect to...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
