Starting and Stopping Remote Boot Services (Windows Embedded Standard 2009)

4/23/2012

By default, the Remote Boot Setup Wizard automatically starts both the Remote Boot service and TFTP service and configures them to start automatically on reboot. From that point, you can stop or start any service manually by using either a command prompt or by running the Services.msc file. The following table shows the commands you can use to alter the state of a Remote Boot service.

Command Command line or batch file entry Services.msc instruction
