The command "net stop 'Dynatrace Gateway'" is the correct method to stop the Dynatrace Gateway service on a Windows system. This command uses the Windows command-line interface (CMD) to interact with services running on the operating system. It specifically targets the service by its name in quotes, which is necessary when the name contains spaces, ensuring the command is correctly interpreted by the system.

Using "net stop" is a standard command for stopping services, providing both reliability and consistency across Windows environments. It's one of the most common approaches to service management in Windows, making it the correct choice for this task.

Other options, while they might suggest certain methods, do not align with the Windows service management commands or syntax. For instance, "dynatrace stop gateway" lacks recognition as a valid command in Windows, and "service stop Dynatrace" does not fit the typical service management conventions on Windows systems. Additionally, "stop-service DynatraceGateway" resembles PowerShell command syntax but is not formatted correctly for stopping services as it does not utilize the proper cmdlet syntax. This makes the first option the most suitable and widely applicable approach for stopping the Dynatrace Gateway.
