Answer 1

I assume that this is the plugin you're using. Unfortunately, the plugin has been abandoned for 5 years, and the way it's written, there is no method for killing the node server once you're done with the plugin. From the Windows command line, this:

taskkill /im node-windows.exe /f /t

should do the trick, but you'll have to run it manually. Alternatively, you can use Task Manager to kill any node-windows.exe processes.

Answer 2

Another way to kill the service is going to Start -> Resource Monitor -> Network Under "Listening Ports" check for your port number, in this case 3000. Take the process Id and then look for it under "Processes with Network Activity" Check the process and right click -> End Process.

This will end the process utilizing the port 3000.

Try using Ctrl+C on your keyboard in your terminal or your command line (depending on whether your operating system is Unix based or Windows based). PowerShell should work too, if on a PC.
