It's still valid for Catalina. You just have to disable SIP first. The "list" subcommand is deprecated. You should use "print" and the appropriate domain instead.

What are you trying to do anyway? And why?

Yep, here you go...

sudo launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/***.plist 

You can stop the service using the unload subcommand.

sudo launchctl unload  /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/***.plist 

To list the services, as you might have already guessed use the 'list' subcommand ;)

Oh, you posted in the High Sierra forum, I had no idea you were on Catalina.
