help why my Windows GUI won’t start my node?

Inside Windows Services, the service won’t start. You can try to run the service manually if you search for Services in Windows it will come up, then find it in the list and try to start it. If it fails, you can open the Windows Event Log and it may show you details as to why it did not start.
