Stop Windows Service Task doesn't through error even though if service not found

[AvinashMitta]

Hi Team
We are using stop and start windows service tasks in azure devops release pipelines.
We have observed that start windows service task throws error if service not found but not the same behavior with stop task. This will often mislead the flow.
Below are the complete logs.
Please fix the issue

This was by design. When installing the service for the first time we didn't want the pipeline to fail when the service wasn't there.

Oh okay .But at least a warning would be helpful stating that service doesn't exists if we intend to use for existing services to stop/start.
