If you run the gateway manually, `clawdbot gateway --force` can reclaim the port. See [Gateway](/gateway).

### I closed my terminal on Windows — how do I restart Clawdbot?
|
||||
|
||||
There are **two Windows install modes**:
|
||||
|
||||
**1) WSL2 (recommended):** the Gateway runs inside Linux.
|
||||
|
||||
Open PowerShell, enter WSL, then restart:
|
||||
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
wsl
|
||||
clawdbot gateway status
|
||||
clawdbot gateway restart
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If you never installed the service, start it in the foreground:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
clawdbot gateway run
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**2) Native Windows (not recommended):** the Gateway runs directly in Windows.
|
||||
|
||||
Open PowerShell and run:
|
||||
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
clawdbot gateway status
|
||||
clawdbot gateway restart
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If you run it manually (no service), use:
|
||||
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
clawdbot gateway run
|
||||
```
|
||||
