+How to enable a qube service
+============================
+
+To enable a :doc:`service </user/advanced-topics/qubes-service>` in a qube there are two options:
+
+* Use the :program:`Settings` of the qube
+* Use `qvm-service <https://dev.qubes-os.org/projects/core-admin-client/en/latest/manpages/qvm-service.html>`__
+
+You might have to restart the qube for changes to be reflected.
+
+How to enable a service in the :program:`Settings`
+---------------------------------------------------
+
+1. Open the qube's :program:`Settings`, you can use :program:`Qubes Application menu`, select the qube and click on :guilabel:`Settings`.
+
+2. Go to the :guilabel:`Services` tab
+
+3. You have two options, depending on the current list of the services:
+
+   * If the service is listed, you just have to check the box if front of the name.
+
+   * If the service is not listed:
+
+     1. Select it in the :guilabel:`Select a service` drop-down.
+
+        If that service is not present in the drop-down, select the last item, called :guilabel:`(custom...)`
+
+     2. Click on :guilabel:`Add`
+
+        If you have previously selected :guilabel:`(custom...)`, a pop-up will ask you the name of the service
+
+4. Use :guilabel:`Apply` or :guilabel:`&OK` to validate the change.
+
+How to enable a service with :program:`qvm-service`
+---------------------------------------------------
+
+In a dom0 terminal, enter the following command, replacing :samp:`{<QUBE_NAME>}` by the name of the qube and :samp:`{<SERVICE_NAME>}` by the name of the service:
+
+.. code:: console
+
+   [user@dom0] $ qvm-service -e <QUBE_NAME> <SERVICE_NAME>
+
+This is equivalent to:
+
+.. code:: console
+
+   [user@dom0] $ qvm-service <QUBE_NAME> <SERVICE_NAME> on
+
+You can check the current status of the services of one qube with the following command:
+
+.. code:: console
+
+   [user@dom0] $ qvm-service <QUBE_NAME>
+
+Or you can check only the current status of one service with the following command:
+
+.. code:: console
+
+   [user@dom0] $ qvm-service <QUBE_NAME> <SERVICE_NAME>
