Here's a comprehensive list of most - if not all - Windows Service available nowadays on the major Windows operating systems - Windows 10, Windows Server 2016 and so on. The list shows the Display Name and the system's ShortName, which is the unique name used by the OS to locate and idenfity the service.
The list should contain almost any known built-in service from both Windows and Windows Server: however, if you happen to find a missing one, feel free to write it in the comments section of this post, so that we'll be able to fill the gap!

Hello, what is the command to display that in Windows ?
Hi,
check out this post to see some available CMD and Powershell commands that can probably do what you want:
https://www.ryadel.com/en/windows-list-services-cmd-command-prompt-powershell-system/
Why isn’t the beep service listed? I can NET STOP BEEP but it doesn’t show up in SC QUERY, or in SERVICES.MSC nor on your list. Are there such things as hidden services?
Good question, I have no idea :) And I didn’t find any info about that. Let’s see if some other reader can enlighten us about this :)
I am having the same problem with NET STOP HTTP There appears to be no display name..
