Hello,
I'm very new to this and have the below issue when trying to start Apache from the CMD prompt as administrator:

C:\HTTPD\Apache24\bin>service Apache
'service' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

I have tried to resolve this through searches online but probably have messed my install up. I also have 2 Apache's listed on my Apache HTTPD Server monitor.
I am running Windows 11.
If you need any more info or have an answer, please let me know.

Thank you

1.
To run Apache without service installation:
C:\HTTPD\Apache24\bin\httpd.exe


2.
To install as service with default name 'Apache2.4':
C:\HTTPD\Apache24\bin\httpd.exe -k install

To uninstall as service with default name 'Apache2.4':
C:\HTTPD\Apache24\bin\httpd.exe -k uninstall

To start installed service from cmd prompt:
net start Apache2.4

To stop installed service from cmd prompt:
net stop Apache2.4


3.
To install as service and set service name:
C:\HTTPD\Apache24\bin\httpd.exe -k install -n ApacheNewServiceName_1

To uninstall service with name:
C:\HTTPD\Apache24\bin\httpd.exe -k uninstall -n ApacheNewServiceName_1

To start installed service from cmd prompt:
net start ApacheNewServiceName_1

To stop installed service from cmd prompt:
net stop ApacheNewServiceName_1

Useful if you need several service installation on one PC.
