I have a very small PowerShell script to reboot a given service. Unfortunately, I'm unsure why it's not working properly. It is executable, but it won't stop the requested service; neither is it executing the functions on the other 2 lines.
Here's the script:
# Stop the "serviceName" service
Stop-Service -Name "serviceName" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
# Wait for 10 seconds
Start-Sleep -Seconds 10
# Start the "serviceName" service
Start-Service -Name "serviceName"
I tried to execute the script from my .\Users\me\Desktop\ using PowerShell running as admin, with no luck.
removing "-ErrorAction SilentlyContinue" from the second line worked.
