I think that most users have encountered such a problem as freezing of services in Windows, and an attempt to forcefully terminate such a service was unsuccessful, and it hangs in mode "Stopping". It is also not possible to restart or forcefully terminate the service from the graphical interface, and restarting the server itself, in our case the computer, may not always be acceptable.

Now we will look at a method that will help you forcefully terminate a process that has frozen, without the need to restart the device itself.

How to forcefully terminate a hung service?

So, as soon as 30 seconds have passed and it is clear that the service has not stopped, Windows will display the following message:

You can quickly and effortlessly terminate a hung process using the utility. Before doing this you will need to define PID process (service). For example, we will use the service, the system process name is wuauserv.

Attention! If you terminate an important process, it may result in a system reboot or BSOD (Screen of Death).

Now open the command line with admin rights; if you don’t do this, an error may occur. Enter the following into the command line:


A message appears indicating that the Windows Update service has ended. You can then return to service management and start the process there again, or delete it altogether if you don’t use it.

There is another method for forcing the process to terminate without needing to find out the PID. The already familiar utility will help us in this matter. We run it as administrator.

The following command will help us identify services that are in the stopping state:

Get-WmiObject -Class win32_service | Where-Object ($_.state -eq ‘stop pending’)


Now we need to complete the process for the services we found, this will help us. Using the following script, all suspended services in the system will be terminated:

$Services = Get-WmiObject -Class win32_service -Filter “state = ‘stop pending"”
if ($Services) (
foreach ($service in $Services) (
try (
Stop-Process -Id $service.processid -Force -PassThru -ErrorAction Stop
}
catch (
Write-Warning -Message » Error. Error details: $_.Exception.Message"
}
}
}
else(
Write-Output “No services with ‘Stopping’.status”
}


That's all, today we were able to terminate processes that we could not terminate, for example, using the device manager or from the graphical shell.

Good afternoon!. Last time we looked at the problem with code 43 and descriptor request failure, today I want to show you another unpleasant moment that I encountered on Windows Server 2012 R2, but it also occurs on other platforms. The point of the glitch is that you get service startup error code 1053, or there may also be wording that the service did not respond to the request. This prevents your application from starting and running, we will look at the main reasons for this behavior and eliminate them.

What does error 1053 look like? The service did not respond to the request.

A little background. I continue the process of virtualizing an old fleet of physical servers, for this I use the P2V VMware vCenter Converter Standalone 6.2 utility. Everything went as usual, I rolled up the utility and tried to launch it, but the program window did not appear for a long time. After a while I got an error on the screen:

Vmware vCenter Converter Standalone Server is installed but not running. When VMware vCenter Converter Standalone Server is not running, you will not be able to connect to local server. Do you want to start it now?

The message says that the converter service is not running, do you want to start it, I choose of course yes. After about 30 seconds, a second window appears with the following text:

We are told that the converter service cannot be started. In the Services snap-in, you can see three VMware vCenter Converter services.

I try to start the application service manually, via right-click, but a warning pops up:

Windows could not start the VMware vCenter Converter Standalone Worker service on Local Computer. Error 1053: The service did not respond tj the start or control request in a timely fashion.

In the Russian version, it looks like this:

The service (Service Name) could not be started on the local computer.

Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely manner.

List of services and programs where you can see error 1053

Let me give you a list with examples where you can see the service response. that she didn't answer

  • VMware vCenter Converter Standalone 6.2
  • Apple Mobile Device Service (ITunes)
  • QEMU Guest Agent
  • At the time of installing the Rutoken drivers
  • Skype

  • MSSQL Service
  • SharePoint
  • 4game-service

As you can see, the range of problems is very large and varied, the same applies to operating systems, you can easily see this on client Windows 7 or Windows 10, and on server Windows Server 2012 R2 and higher.

How to fix error 1053

Let me show you how I corrected error code 1053 in the case of the Vmware vCenter Converter Standalone utility, but the described technique is also suitable for other services and programs.

  • First of all, you must go to the service snap-in, this is very simple, to do this, press two keys Win and R at the same time, you will see the “Run” window, write the word in it services.msc, this is the system name of this equipment, see the link for details.

You will see a snap-in with all the services that are in the operating system. You find the one you need, which in your case gave the message “the service cannot start, error 1053,” and try to start it manually. To do this, you right-click on it and select “Run” from the context menu. In some cases, this can help, oddly enough, but this was not my case.

We see that we have received the same error, do not despair, since everything is just beginning. Through the same context menu, select the “Properties” item. Here the situation may be like this. Some services, for the life of me, cannot function without others, and while others are not running, they will also be idle, and as a result of this, you can see a message with code 1053. This combination is called a dependency. You can see whether your faulty service has it or not on the corresponding “Dependencies” tab. In my case, for the Vmware vCenter Converter Standalone utility to work, the “Workstation” service needs to work, which, as you can see, consists of three components.

We close this window and in the list of services, look for the dependent one we need, I remind you that this is the “Workstation” service. As you can see, it turned out to be running, if your dependent service is turned off, then try to start it and when it starts working, try to start the main one.

  • If the trick with dependent services did not help you and you, like me, still receive the message “the service did not respond in a timely manner,” try checking your DNS settings. It happens that some programs must connect to a workstation or server by name in order to work, and if this does not work, then you find yourself in this situation. Open the TCP/IPv4 settings and check your data by IP address and DNS server, see the link on the left for how to get there. My address was configured statically (manually), if you have an automatic one, in most cases users there have an automatic setting that comes from a DHCP service located on another server or network equipment, for example, in home computers, this is WIFi or a regular router.

I noticed at home that the first of the DNS servers, some strange one that was not familiar to me, apparently someone had registered it earlier. I'm trying to check its network availability using the ping command and at the same time find out its name.

ping -a ip address of your dns

It didn’t respond to me, I also tried to resolve the name of this server, where I received an error, its IP address in my example ends with 157, the name was determined, which means the second DNS server processed everything correctly, I corrected the first one. If you have a domain computer, make sure that names are resolved via IP. Let's go look for a solution further.

  • I continued to study this issue and came across one discussion on my utility Vmware vCenter Converter Standalone (https://docs.vmware.com/en/vCenter-Converter-Standalone/6.2/rn/conv_sa_62_rel_notes.html), it described the situation that due to the fact that the DNS name cannot be resolved within 30 seconds, you may receive service error 1053. It suggested changing the standard value in the Windows operating system to another one, increasing the check interval.

In 90% of cases you have error 1053, the service did not respond in a timely manner, it will pass. I also saw a situation that after a reboot, those services that come with delayed start may take a little longer to start than usual, sometimes they even have to be started manually, but they work. For me personally, this method helped with Vmware vCenter Converter Standalone.

Additional methods to fix error 1053

Unfortunately, the trick with a registry key does not always work and not with all software; in 10% of cases you will all see a warning “the service did not respond to the request in a timely manner,” here I will provide a checklist that will allow you to eliminate the cause.

  • In some cases, many programs in their code have code that works with net framework libraries, and if they are damaged on your computer, then code 1053 may appear, in such cases we do this:

I hope that I helped you a little in eliminating the warning code 1053 and you managed to start the necessary service..

When installing the Rutoken Drivers, an error occurs: "Calling function: RTSC_Wait_For_Service_Status. Error code: 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion. (Error code: 1053: The service did not respond to the request in a timely manner)"


Cause

When installing the Rutoken Drivers, an attempt is made to restart the Smart Card service, the performance of which is one of the most important components for working with the Rutoken key identifier. If it is impossible to restart the specified service, error code 1053 occurs. There may be various reasons for problems with the Smart Card service.

Solution

1. Disable your antivirus while installing Rutoken Drivers

2. Make sure that the registry branches ("Start" - "Run" - regedit)

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Cryptography\Calais

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Cryptography\Calais\Readers

The Local Service user has full access: RMB on the desired branch - Permissions - select the desired user (*) and check the "Full access" checkbox at the bottom


(*) If the required user is not in the selection, you need to add it:

Click "Add"

In the "Enter the names of objects to select" field, enter LO

Click "Check Names"

Select Local Service

3. Make sure that the Smart Card Service is running as NT AUTHORITY\LocalService ("Start" - "Control Panel" - "Administration" - "Services"). Start/Restart the service.


4. If the service does not work/does not start/does not restart, it may need to be reinstalled (System administrators only!).

1) Win7, Vista, Win8/8.1, Win10

Run the file (smart-card-7) from the attachment

Restart your computer

Reinstall the smart card service according to the instructions in the attachment (Smart-Card-XP)


Manually editing the Windows registry to remove Error 1053 keys that contain errors is not recommended unless you are a PC service professional. Mistakes made when editing the registry can render your PC inoperable and cause irreparable damage to your operating system. In fact, even one comma placed in the wrong place can prevent your computer from booting!

  6. The black box opens with a blinking cursor.
  7. Enter " regedit" and press ENTER.
  8. In the Registry Editor, select the Error 1053-related key (for example, Windows) that you want to back up.
  9. On the menu File select Export.
  10. On the list Save to select the folder where you want to save the Windows key backup.
  11. In field File name Enter a name for the backup file, for example "Windows backup".
  12. Make sure the field Export range value selected Selected branch.
  13. Click Save.
  14. The file will be saved with extension .reg.
  15. You now have a backup of your Windows-related registry entry.

The following steps for manually editing the registry will not be described in this article, as they are likely to damage your system. If you would like more information about editing the registry manually, please check out the links below.
