Hi Anu,

exactly as Kevin suggests, this needs to be entered also in your case:

Full path to the file: %windir%\system32\net.exe
Parameters: start WinRM

This will do the job :)

If you look closely the path is to net.exe (not the service exe). Effectively this runs "net start service". Was that the issue?

Though the OS MP should be monitoring for WinRM. This sort of automated response is usually only needed for 3rd party services. The core OS services are pretty good at managing themselves.

You can only add a recovery task to an unsealed or custom monitor. The WinRM monitor in the OS MP is sealed.
