This cmdlet is only available on the Windows platform.
The Resume-Service
cmdlet sends a resume message to the Windows Service Controller for each of the
specified services. If a service is suspended, it resumes. If it is currently running, the message
is ignored. 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 services that you want to
resume.
PS C:\> Resume-Service "sens"
This command resumes the System Event Notification service on the local computer. The service name is represented in the command by sens. The command uses the Name parameter to specify the service name of the service, but the command omits the parameter name because the parameter name is optional.
PS C:\> Get-Service | Where-Object {$_.Status -eq "Paused"} | Resume-Service
This command resumes all of the suspended services on the computer. The Get-Service
cmdlet command
gets all of the services on the computer. The pipeline operator (|
) passes the results to the
Where-Object
cmdlet, which selects the services that have a Status property of Paused. The
next pipeline operator sends the results to Resume-Service
, which resumes the paused services.
In practice, you would use the WhatIf parameter to determine the effect of the command before you run it.
Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.
