 When installed the Serviio Server program is registered as a "Service" in Windows, which will start "Automatically" on Windows startup. It consists of the logic required to maintain its media library and the logic to receive streams and transmit files and streams, possibly transcoded according to device profiles, to connected DLNA devices.  When installed the Serviio Server program is registered as a "Service" in Windows, which will start "Automatically" on Windows startup.

 The Serviio Server program may also be started and stopped as a Windows Process under java (if the Serviio Server Service has been stopped) using the startserviio.bat file in the installed Serviio/bin directory. Similarly the Serviio Console may also be started and stopped as a Windows Process under java (if the ServiioConsole.exe application has been stopped) using the serviio-console.bat file in the installed Serviio/bin directory. These are useful in testing new versions of Serviio without uninstalling the existing Serviio Server Service. The Serviio Server program may also be started and stopped as a Windows Process under java (if the Serviio Server Service has been stopped) using the startserviio.bat file in the installed Serviio/bin directory.

-The Serviio Server will run continuously in the background, maintaining the library and awaiting DLNA messages from attached devices. These actions may be suspended or restarted using the "Stop Server" and "Start Server" buttons on the "Status" tab of the Console. This allows Serviio to be "Paused" without exiting or stopping the Serviio Server Service.+The Serviio Server will run continuously in the background, maintaining the library and awaiting DLNA messages from attached devices. These actions may be suspended or restarted using the "Stop Server" and "Start Server" buttons on the "Status" tab of the Console. This allows Serviio to be "Paused" without exiting or stopping the Serviio Server Service. This can also help in situations where Serviio is not detected on the network as it'll notify all renderers on the network about it presence again.
  
-Changes made using the Console take effect within the Server immediately upon saving. Changes made to Profiles or Plugins, require the Serviio Server program or Service to be stopped and restarted before they take effect.+Changes made using the Console take effect within the Server immediately upon saving.
