Hi priya dave,
You typically use the Services GUI in Windows to configure a services start-up type, but you can also use the SC command to set the start-up type from the command line:
sc config <service name> start=<mode>
The start options are:
- auto — a service automatically started at boot time, even if no user logs on
- boot — a device driver loaded by the boot loader
- demand — a service that must be manually started (the default)
- disabled — a service that can’t be started
- system — a service started during kernel initialization
You need to have Admin privileges to perform this change either via GUI or CLI. Hope it helps.
