How to enable Windows features "MSMQ Server" and "MSMQ Server Core" using PowerShell?

I am trying to enable Windows features "MSMQ Server" and "MSMQ Server Core" using PowerShell with the below command:

Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName 'MSMQ-Server' -All -NoRestart

But the above command enables only the "MSMQ Server" and not "MSMQ Server Core". I want a PowerShell command which enables both "MSMQ Server" and "MSMQ Server Core" feature. Any help on this will be highly appreciated.

Thanks, Mani Athreya S

You might want to add an -All flag to Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature. This installs the prerequisites of the specified feature.

If you want to enable all MSMQ features, you can run this command. For the record, I do not see a MSMS-Server-Core feature available in my up-to-date Server 2019 VM.

Get-WindowsOptionalFeature -FeatureName MSMQ* -Online |
   Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -NoRestart -Verbose
