At the moment we don't support stopping the driver in release mode --
this is intentional and should prevent the guest OS becoming less
usable. You can, however, compile the driver with
VBOX_REBOOT_ON_UNINSTALL unset (e.g. handled in
IRP_MN_QUERY_STOP_DEVICE) to stop the driver via device/service manager.

I noticed that VBoxDrv on Windows host can't be stopped using command
like this:
net stop vboxdrv
even after changing the service start value to be 3 (on demand).
Is there any particular reason why this driver can't be stopped?
net start vboxdrv (after start, immediately do stop, no use at all)
net stop vboxdrv
sc query vboxdrv
SERVICE_NAME: vboxdrv
TYPE : 1 KERNEL_DRIVER
STATE : 3 STOP_PENDING
(STOPPABLE, NOT_PAUSABLE, IGNORES_SHUTDOWN)
WIN32_EXIT_CODE : 0 (0x0)
SERVICE_EXIT_CODE : 0 (0x0)
CHECKPOINT : 0x0
WAIT_HINT : 0x0
