Solve : Query a service? |
|
Answer» HI all, I can't seem to figure it out for the life of me. Is it possible to query a service that is running or not? I WANTED to query a service and have a prompt that it is running or not. Like: reg query "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\srservice" /v start For this instance, I would like to be prompted if the service is running or not. The "start" value determines if it is running or not, 4 is disabled, 2 is ENABLED. If there is another way other than QUERYING the registry, it would be helpful as well. depending on your OS , you can use resource kit tools like sc, sclist http://www.ss64.com/nt/sclist.htmlYou can use the NET START command to see a list of running services. In fact, I just posted some of this same code a few questions back. It looks like you are looking at the System Restore service, so you could use: Code: [Select]net start | FIND /I "System Restore" >NUL if not ERRORLEVEL 1 ( echo System Restore appears to be enabled ) else echo System Restore does not appear to be enabled |
