How do I stop Postgres server using pgAdmin?

I want to stop postgres server 13 since I installed postgres 15. I look for a stop server button in pgadmin but it looks like that this kind of a button does not exist.

For such a simple functionality, I may have missed something. What do I think wrong? Why isn’t there a stop server button?

    pgAdmin is not intended to stop PostgreSQL servers. It’s such a simple feature that you just need to use mechanism of your OS for that: systemctl or whatever on Linux, services.msc on Windows, don’t know what on MacOS.

    pgAdmin is, contrary to what its name suggests, not a database administration program. It is a client program that offers a schema browser, an interactive query tool and support for import and export via pg_dump/pg_restore.

    To stop the server, you must log into the database server machine.
