Kill process / Stop hung service

  1. Start CMD with administrative rights
  2. Find service you want to kill (in this case “spooler”)
C:\Windows\system32>sc queryex | findstr /I spoo
SERVICE_NAME: Spooler
DISPLAY_NAME: Print Spooler
  1. Now we know the right name of service (SERVICE_NAME: Spooler) and we can find its PID
C:\Windows\system32>sc queryex Spooler |findstr PID
        PID                : 3480
  1. With known PID wi can now kill the process
