How to start SQL Server in minimal configuration mode?..

Answer / santhosh

In a Command Prompt window, you can start the SQL server in
minimal configuration mode by typing: sqlservr -c -f

This command also starts the SQL server in single-user mode.
Also, the server will not run any startup stored procedures.
Additionally, when you start the SQL server in minimum
configuration mode, then SQL Server automatically sets the
size of tempdb to 2 MB on its default device. You must then
manually increase the size of tempdb as necessary.
