Managing Services from a Command Prompt:

You can use variants of the Net command to mae changes to
services from a Cammoan promt. Don't be dissuaded by the
name, the Net command manages all services, not only
network services.

Net Commands for Managing Services :
Net Start Displays a list of running services.

Net Start service Starts the service service. For
service, you can use either the service name or its
display name. (For example, net start schedule and net
start "task scheduler" are equivalent.). Surround
multiword service names with quotation marks.

Net Stop service Stops the service service. The service
must be started before you can stop it.

Net Pause service Pauses the service service. The
service must be started before you can pause it. Many
services don't permit pausing.

Net Continue service Resumes the service service. The
service must be paused before you can resume it.

Hope this helps!
