• SQL Server runs as a service on Windows. You set the service to start automatically and every time Windows is restarted, SQL Server will be automatically started.

    Just set all SQL Server services that you want started when the server start to automatic. To do this, open Configuration Manager, select the services you want and modify the startup from Manual to Automatic.
