Powershell - Start Windows service with a parameter

Question

I need to start a windows service via Powershell with a \'1\' as a parameter, like below:

So basically I want to do something like this with powershell:

Answer 1

An alternative is to use the Get-Service cmdlet to obtain a service controller, and then invoke its Start() method.

# "ServiceName" != "Display Name"
$yourService = Get-Service "ServiceName" 
$yourService.Start(1)

If you need to supply multiple arguments (credit to @Mark):

$yourService.Start(@('arg1','arg2'))

Answer 2

You can invoke sc.exe that allows starting services with parameters:

Invoke-Expression "sc.exe start _MyService 1"
