Exact words in Dropdown list for starttype options in WAP push Properties in services.msc

[DocAElstein]

Hi
I am mainly interested in windows 10 here, but windows 11 would also be OK.
I am trying to track down an annoying inconstancy in the results got from a PowerShell script.

Can anyone tell me please
_ 1 Your operating system version
_ 2 exactly what you see as
_2a) the name
and
_2b) the exact words used in the startup dropdown list in the Properties of a services.msc thing that goes under the name/ description of something like WAP push

Regarding _2 , I am talking about what you see when you do this
_(i) Hit the Microsoft button + Key r , and type in services.msc

_(ii) scroll down to the thing called something like WAP push

_(iii) right click to get the Properties

I am particularly intersted in
_ what you see where I see dmwappushservice (Note: I highly suspect that will be the same as me. If it is different you may not be looking at the service I am intersted in)
_ I would like to know the exact words you see in the starttype drop down list options, ( I see there 4 in German )

Thanks
Alan


P.S. As a bonus , if anyone has an opinion what that services actually does when its doing anything, ( in Layman terms that I might understand ) , then I would be very interested. – So far I have seen conflicting opinions.

I have Windows 11 Home.
I don't have the service you mention - there is nothing between Wallet Service and Warp JIT Service.

Thanks Hans,
I wonder if it might be that Wi-Fi Direct Services Conn….. – the description bit sounds familiar.
( Do you, or anyone, know if there is a simple way to search the names ( Dienstname in my screenshot ) at the top of the Properties
Ideally a list with that Dienstname along with something else like the description or the Name )
I am trying to learn PowerShell just now and I know there is ways to Get a list through “piping them out" or some such, but I haven’t got that far yet. I deally a list with that Dienstname along something else like the description or the Name )

I think I have seen the service I am looking for in an English YouTube video ( a few years back so it would have been windows 10 ) , down the list under the d's going in the name the same as the dienst name, dmwappushservice, I will try to find one...
Edit, here we go - this will be Windows 10 , not sure exactly what version, but it would have been a current version from about two and a half few years ago

From Security guidelines for disabling system services in windows server: Service required on client devices for Intune, MDM and similar management technologies, and for Unified Write Filter.

Is this a managed device?

[DocAElstein]

Thanks for the reply Joe. (I will check through some of the services listed there and compare them with those I am playing around with – there might be some recommendations relevant to me)

Sorry, I don’t quite understand what you are asking there.

What I am doing basically is taking a look at some Windows 10 machines, (mostly Pro, just one Home version), for some friends who, ( believe it or not ), know even less than me about a computer.
The computers will all be used for private use, at least initially, I think.
Amongst other things I am looking at some of the “Debloat” scripts that are around, with a vew to possibly using them on some of these machines.
(I am playing around with them on some of my machines initially incase I break anything badly!)
The scripts don’t always seem to be doing what the author claims for me. It could well be that the problem lies elsewhere. I am just trying to see what those dropdown words are in a few English Windows 10’s to check if differences might cause issues.

I just found out that the service who's Properties I am looking for help in might have the name in some more recent English Windows versions of
Device Management Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) Push Message Routing Service

[StuartR]

I found it under D for Device...

[DocAElstein]

Thanks Stuart, that’s exactly what I was looking for.
(That was my best guess, since it’s the nearest German – English translation. But Microsoft don’t always use the nearest translated words, so I wanted to be sure, ( in particular the Delayed Start could easilly have been written slightly differently) )

( By the way, I am finding some interesting results which can be helpful to me. If I use just a M or a D in the script coding it usually gets it correct for what I want. Useful to know in the cases where there are only the three to choose from, Automatic(Automatisch), Manual(Manuell), Disable(Deaktiviert) , or when I only want either of the first two in my WAP push Properties list)
