I want to test enabling a disabled service through a command line and not through a GPO. Problem is that everything that I search for shows how to enable that through GPO. Can anyone assist?

I would recommend that you use other technet forums for non SCCM related questions.Using the SC command or a VB script can help you An example VB script is belowstrComputer = "."Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")Set colServiceList = objWMIService.ExecQuery _("Select * from Win32_Service where Name = 'YourServiceNameHere'")For Each objService in colServiceListobjService.ChangeStartMode("Automatic")Wscript.Sleep 5000errReturnCode = objService.StartService()NextReference :http://www.msfn.org/board/lofiversion/index.php/t46610.html

Just use the following command linesc config servicename start= autoNote the space behind the = sign which is required."Everyone is an expert at something" Kim Oppalfens Configmgr expert for lack of any other expertise. http://www.scug.be/blogs/sccm

"Everyone is an expert at something" Kim Oppalfens Configmgr expert for lack of any other expertise. http://www.scug.be/blogs/sccm I also was playing with that and used "sc config servicename start= disabled" to redisable it.Thank you. This is going to be huge for our software updates and we were tasked with figuring this out by today.
