OK, no program or OS is perfect, so at some stage the service might get itself tied up and confused for whatever reason. This option allows you to kick-start the service and get things re-initialized again.

This option should take about 3 seconds to complete.

 

Only the receiving socket is reset, i.e. the Winsock part of the service.
