Powershell Script to stop/start IIS in Windows 10

Question

Essentially what the subject says. I have tried:

 stop-service -name iisadmin,was,w3svc -passThru

However 'iisadmin' is not found. What gives?

Answer 1

IIS admin service is mainly used to handle Metabase.

So please ensure Internet information service->Management tools-> IIS 6 management compatibility -> IIS 6 Metabase compatibility has been installed.

When you finish installing this feature, IIS Admin service will be displayed in Service.msc. And your Powershell command would start working.
