Need to see every currently stopped service on a machine - for troubleshooting a missing feature, auditing disabled services, or confirming something isn't running when it shouldn't be? This one-liner filters the full service list down to just the inactive ones.

Prerequisites:

- Privileges: None
- Module: Built-in, no import needed

Quick Command:

```Powershell
Get-Service | Where-Object { $_.Status -eq "Stopped" }
```

Example Output:

```Powershell
Status    Name               DisplayName
------    ----               -----------
Stopped   RemoteRegistry     Remote Registry
Stopped   WerSvc             Windows Error Reporting Service
Stopped   XblAuthManager     Xbox Live Auth Manager
Stopped   XboxNetApiSvc      Xbox Live Networking Service
Stopped   RetailDemo         Retail Demo Service
```

How It Works:

- Get-Service returns every service on the system, regardless of its current state (running, stopped, paused).
- Where-Object { $.Status -eq "Stopped" } filters that list down to only the services whose Status property equals "Stopped" - $ refers to each service as it's checked, one at a time.
- Everything not matching Stopped (running, paused, or otherwise) gets filtered out, leaving only inactive services in the output.
