    The server is installed as a service and starts automatically whenever you start Windows.

    A restart stops and restarts the server. If you have changed the server configuration, restarting the server ensures that all client connections use the new settings. Without a restart, new client sessions use the new settings, but existing connections continue to use the settings that were in effect when those connections were established.
