Scheduling Services to start and stop

[ThC 129 0]

Is there any way to do this with task scheduler. I have not tried it yet i was just wondering. The reason is because i run an FTP server and I defragment my hard drives every night. So when my drives are defragmenting I want to stop the server, and when they are done start it again.

Net Start "service"

Net stop "service"

 

make them batches, and set task scheduler to run them.

 

Batch files and task scheduler is your friend.
