How to stop a local SQL Server instance from command line or PowerShell? In this tutorial we’ll show you 5 simple ways to stop or start SQL Server service in SQL Server 2016\/2014\/2012\/2005.<\/p>\n

Method 1: Stop \/ Start SQL Server Service from Microsoft Services Console<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Press the Windows + R keys to open the Run box. Type services.msc<\/strong> and press Enter.<\/li>\n
  2. This will open the Microsoft Services console. Find the service called SQL Server (instant name)<\/strong> and then double-click on it.\n

    \"sql-server-service\"<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  3. In the Properties dialog box, you can see that the service name of my SQL Server instance is MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS<\/em>. From there you can click the Stop<\/strong> button if your SQL Server service is running, or click the Start<\/strong> button to get the service up and running.\n

    \"stop-sql-server-service\"<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Method 2: Stop \/ Start SQL Server Service from Command Line<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Open an elevated Command Prompt<\/a>.<\/li>\n
    2. To stop a named SQL Server instance, type the following command. Replace SQLEXPRESS<\/em> with the instance name.
      \nnet stop MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS<\/code><\/p>\n

      \"start-sql-server-command-line\"<\/p>\n

      \tTo start a named SQL Server instance, type:
      \nnet start MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS<\/code><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Method 3: Stop \/ Start SQL Server Service from SQL Server Configuration Manager<\/strong><\/p>\n

        \n
      1. To get started, you need to open SQL Server Configuration Manager. In Windows Server 2008 or 2003, you can click Start > Programs -> Microsoft SQL Server > Configuration Tools > SQL Server Configuration Manager.<\/li>\n
      2. In the left pane of SQL Server Configuration Manager, click SQL Server Services<\/strong>. We can see all services in right pane. Right-click on SQL Server service and you can then select Stop<\/strong> or Start<\/strong> from the context menu.\n

        \"sql-server-configuration-manager\"<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Method 4: Stop \/ Start SQL Server Service from PowerShell<\/strong><\/p>\n

          \n
        1. Open the PowerShell as administrator<\/a>.<\/li>\n
        2. You can use the Start-Service cmdlet to stop your SQL Server service. Replace SQLEXPRESS<\/em> with the instance name.
          \nStart-Service -Name 'MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS'<\/code><\/p>\n

          \"start-sql-server-powershell\"<\/p>\n

          \tOr use the Stop-Service cmdlet to start your SQL Server service.
          \nStop-Service -Name 'MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS'<\/code><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Method 5: Stop \/ Start SQL Server Service from SQL server Management Studio<\/strong><\/p>\n

            \n
          1. Open SQL server Management Studio and connect to your SQL Server instance.<\/li>\n
          2. Right-click on the server in Object Explorer, you’ll have options to Stop<\/strong>, Start<\/strong>, Pause<\/strong>, Resume<\/strong> and Restart<\/strong> your SQL Server service. If we are not already connected, we can’t start a stopped instance.\n
