    While running SQLServr.exe -sMSSQLSERVER command I get the error pictured above. How can I solve it.
    How to identify which program uses ERRORLOG already?
    Thanks.

    From your latest posts on the forum it looks like you are trying to learn to use sql server - as part of that learning process your most important task is to learn to search for your answers instead of just posting on a forum asking for a straight answer from someone else. Plenty of explanations about the error you are getting as well as possible causes.

    One that may be happening to you is that you are trying to start a instance that is already running so without even pointing you to the other possible causes and solutions (which you can find with an easy google search) I would suggest you check if any other sqlserver.exe is running for that instance and if so stop it before attempting to run it from the command line.

    has the instance service already been started?
    to start the instance from command line the service must first be stopped
