Why each option
Restarting the computer resumes a paused Windows Search index because the Windows Search service restarts automatically on boot, clearing the paused state.
When indexing is paused through Indexing Options, the paused state is held only in the running service instance and is not persisted across reboots. A system restart causes the Windows Search service (WSearch) to start fresh, automatically resuming indexing from its saved checkpoint.
This is incorrect because a restart does clear the in-memory paused state of the Windows Search service and the indexer resumes automatically when the service restarts on boot.
