Reading the web config for a running service on Windows 10

I need to find if a service is running on Windows 10, then I need to read the web.config for that service.

Edward Pamias

I am not understanding the question? Do you need guidance on how to find the service?

Yes, and the tool in Windows 10 that can show it to me?

Also, it would be useful to find the web.config for that service

I need to see if it's running and what it's called. Can you tell me how to find it on Windows 10?

These are Windows services but I have a web service. Isn't IIS the place I would find (stat/stop) this kind of service?

Edward Pamias

Sorry, I had a feeling I was confusing the 2. Did you install web services on that PC?

As Dave said its not on the machine,

@Dave I am looking under add/remove programs and Turn Windows Features on or off, would it be there. I am seeing world wide web services there to enable.

I know there is a web service running on a QA machine, and yes, IIS in installed and working. The web service which is our web service wrapper to SalesForce is also working.

I just need to find it.

The Start/Stop comment I made was because I was confusing it with Windows Services.

I assume I will find it when I open IIS. It looks different when I look at it on Windows 10.

What do I type into the command line?

Is there a way to find web services that may be hosted on the machine, but without IIS?

Also, the web service which I seek is a required back-end service for the website hosted there using IIS.

I learned I am using Windows Server 2012 R2

where access is provided to IIS (8.5.9600)

I do not see web services, only a few dozen of our hosted websites.

OR...

Is there a WCF tool that might make this visible to me?

The project is called:
MyDomainName.ServiceTier.APX.SalesForceService

so I assumed SalesForceService would be the name of the service

I also assumed Services.msc was strictly for Windows services, since I see the WCF Test Client open when I run the service from Visual Studio 2015.

I even search the entire hard drive for "SalesForceService".

Where should I find a web service hosted on that Windows 10 server?

Thanks for the help.
