About V2 long options

Hi

I read old style long options (e.g. -home) is no longer supported. Is it true in Windows too ?

Thank you

As I understand it, that is correct for v2. Deprecated but still works for v1.x.

Command line options are interpreted the same on all platforms. Long form double dashes have always worked in Syncthing, just it wasn’t always what was documented and printed in the help. (This is an idiosyncrasy of the Go standard flags package.)

My question was because I wander if I have to instruct my friends/family still in Windows to pre-fix their -no-console option in their shell:startup shortcut.

Yes, I would recommend that you do that.

Thank you
