+  On Windows, to use the <<<start>>> and <<<stop>>> commands you must first install it as a service. This is done by running:
+
+----
+.\bin\archiva install
+----
+
+  You can then use the <<<start>>> and <<<stop>>> commands as well as the traditional Windows service management console to manage the Archiva
+  service.
+
+  This procedure installs the service to run as the local system user. You must ensure that it has access to read the installation, and to write
+  to the logs and data directories.
+
+  You can later remove the service with:
+
+----
+.\bin\archiva remove
