Unable to initialize the Shared Memory listener. Access is denied

SQL Server failed to start 

Run SQL Server from command line and shows this error: Unable to initialize the Shared Memory listener. Access is denied

Cause: When the SQL Server starts it tries to open listening named-pipes to accept client share memory or named-pipe connections. If the listening named-pipes are not closed properly during the last shutdown of SQL Server (maybe after a forced kill of the SQL Server process), there will be orphan named-pipe handles in the windows kernel file system.
To solve this issue, a quick solution will be to reboot the host machine.
