Waiting is required when your server crashes/is attacked/etc. so that it doesn’t stop properly.
This means that you don’t run server and wait, but stop it and wait.
Also, as @TS.ChrisR said, check if you don’t have any additional server instances running in background. I’m not a expert and I don’t really own a server, but maybe restating whole server (literal machine, not software) and then waiting these 2-3 hours (or preferably a bit more, maybe 4 hours) will fix this issue. If you don’t have any ideas, why not check it?
But be aware that you’re doing this on your own responsibility!
It does not crash! Please stop saying that when it is not the case.
None of what you showed till now shows any crash.
You only showed us that to many slots where in use (we explained why and what you can do)
And the SIGTERM is not coming from us.
So when there is a crash then please show us a log or crashdump OR else follow what we tried to explain when to many slots where reported.
When you are the owner of the license and think someone else does use it then please report that to our Sales department and request a new license file and let them make the current one invalid.
You can do that by clicking the Help & Support button on the right side of that forum.
You must use the same email address that was used for the license or else the Sales department can not verify that you are the owner. Give them as much details as you can to make their life and yours easier

I can not do this since my server does not work so the telnet console cannot work if a teamspeak staff could help me since the problem mainly comes from the new update
This has nothing to do with the update. The server you are trying to start has to many slots for the default license.
We can not give you 3rd party support so we suggest SSH/Telnet connection to solve this (you see the ports in your log).
Open the port or do a connection from the machine itself and you do not need to open a port.
its good i solved the problem i used navicat to open the ts3server.sqlitedb file and i changed the number of slots to 32 and its solved issue using navicat it does not harm the ts3server.sqlitedb file?
after I had no other choice since the server did not want to start the only solution was to open the file and just modify 64 slots into 32 slots in itself I did not modify anything big
You just could have logged via ServerQuery as Fake mentioned and gave an how to and change the slots.
It’s not needed that the voice server started.
The use 1 -virtual as an example allows to select the voice server as long the server instance is running.
Then you could’ve performed command serveredit virtualserver_maxclients=32 followdy by serverstart sid=1
So as i said in the title, i can’t run my teamspeak3 server because server properties have 128 slots, my license expired, i deleted licensekey.dat from the folder.
I work on dedicated windows server.
I have many IP address, so i set ts3server.ini with the IP i want to work with ts3.
I want to run back to 32 slots, i don’t need a license anymore, but my server is off so i can’t modify 128 slots, and put back to 32 slots. I don’t need help about an expired license. I need help to run my server and put back the 32 slots…
I update my TS3 server exactly with instruction here Update / Upgrade a TS3 server after all, server start and running but can’t connect with them. When I remove my ts3server.sqlitedb and then start server I connect with them without any problem. What could go wrong? What to do to restore my server settings?
I don’t have ts3server.ini (or I can’t locate it) and licensekey.dat are exist and is empty. I read that I probably can’t recreate licensekey.dat for non profit old free license (I have my serar I think almost 10 years) I even don’t remember how I got it, is it possible that I have it on e-mail? I do some backups in this years but only ts3server.sqlitedb.
If is not possible to get back my license key file then is it possiblilty to edit ts3server.sqlitedb to get back server settings, users?
