While connecting to Jenkins using http://:8080 Jenkins is working fine. However while changing to https://:8443 (or 443) we are getting error as "Windows could not start the Jenkins service on Local computer. Error 1067: The process terminated unexpectedly.

Hello @Sandesh1992 and welcome to this community 👋 .  
How did you start Jenkins? Is it running on top of Tomcat or just by itself?

Thanks for the warm welcome @halkeye

As mentioned the Jenkins is installed using windows MSI file 64 bit. This was started by itself. And we have not installed using tomcat or IIS.  
Thank you

As far as [I know](https://www.jenkins.io/doc/book/installing/windows/), with a standard installation of Jenkins on Windows there is no `https` service started.  
You just have the standard `http` service on the port you configured. 😊

I could be wrong though.

Hi @poddingue

Thank you for the confirmation. I looked online as well, but I was unable to locate any relevant information or videos.

Thank you
