In the past (a long time ago when I used the server part from filezilla the last time) I had to start the FileZilla Server with the following command
server.exe /compat /start
and the Serverinterface.exe
When I try to do this with the newest server version on Windows 10 I am getting
Unhandled option: /compat
Error. And serverinterface.exe does not exist any more.
I guess filezilla server API changed. So what is the corresponding cmdline command now?
Is there meanwhile an option to start background server/service AUTOMATICALLY when I start filezilla-server-gui.exe and core background server/services is currently not started?
If I start filezilla-server-gui.exe I get a Login dialog:
Host=localhost
Port=14148
Password=?
What password do I have to enter here?
How can I change/reset it?

To start the server as regular process, just start the executable. To start the server as service, go e.g. through services.msc
If you forgot the administration password, re-run the installer to change it.

So is there really no way to reset the password?
I cannot believe that.
How can I at least re-generate and assign (a new) certificate WITHOUT re-installing whole Filezilla Server?

There are many ways to reset the administration password on the server, @botg suggested you'd use the most straightforward one.
You can regenerate certificates via the Administration Interface.
