Exchange 2013 : The service w3svc isn’t running

When you open the Exchange Management Shell, this error can appear :

w3csvc

It means that the w3svc service is stopped.

Fix :

Just open “services.msc” and start the “World Wide Web Publishing Service”

w3svc

Now, you can open the Management Shell without error.
