Error in stopping a service

  • I am not able to stop sql service at my local system because this says that there is some dependent service.

    PS C:\Windows\system32> Get-Service | Where-Object {$_.name -eq "mssqlserver"} | Where-Object {$_.status -eq "Running"}

    | Stop-Service

    Stop-Service : Cannot stop service 'SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) (MSSQLSERVER)' because it has dependent services. It can o

    nly be stopped if the Force flag is set.

    At line:1 char:111

    + Get-Service | Where-Object {$_.name -eq "mssqlserver"} | Where-Object {$_.status -eq "Running"} | Stop-Service <<<<

    + CategoryInfo : InvalidOperation: (System.ServiceProcess.ServiceController:ServiceController) [Stop-Serv

    ice], ServiceCommandException

    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : ServiceHasDependentServices,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.StopServiceCommand

    The dependent service is System.ServiceProcess.ServiceController[]. I searched for this dependent service in services.msc (or

    GET-SERVICE) but could not find any service with this name. what to do? Need help...

  • Try this:

    Get-Service | Where-Object {$_.name -eq "mssqlserver"} | Where-Object {$_.status -eq "Running"} | Stop-Service -force
