If you make changes to the Web server registry settings, it is necessary to stop the Web server and restart it to make the changes take effect.
To stop, start, or refresh the Web server programmatically, use the CreateProcessfunction with "httpdsvc" as the lpApplicationNameparameter and either "-stop", "-start", or "-refresh", respectively, as the lpCommandLineparameter.
Note For compatibility with future releases, we recommend against starting or stopping the Web Server directly through its exported functions.
The IsEnabledregistry value is checked only when the Web server is starting up. If the registry value is set to 0, the Web server does not start up. Note that changing this value to 0 while the Web server is running has no effect. You also must stop the Web server to make it stop accepting connections.
