Description
Starts a stopped stopwatch.
Call Start to start a stopped stopwatch. If the stopwatch was previously started, Start simply returns. To stop a started stopwatch, use the Stop method.
If the stopwatch was previously used, the total elapsed time is cumulated with the new time span. This means that you can start and stop a stopwatch multiple times and its Elapsed property will cumulate all the periods in which the stopwatch was active.
