Services management during OSD Task Execution

Hello Friends, During the OSD Task Sequence execution process, We have to disable and stop some services, or sometimes we have to enable and start the services from Windows services.msc console.

We can use cmdlet from PowerShell "set-service" to manage the services on the windows operating system.

To manage the bunch of services during Task Sequence execution, We have created the below PowerShell script and managed some of the services. you can change the service name and startup type as per your requirement.

also, you can use this PowerShell script before capture the WIM file or it can be used during the TS execution time. in both scenarios, we can manage the services.

Use the below script to manage the services during OSD.
