Syncthing setup for all user (Syncthing as service on Windows)

Dear Forum users,

I have tried to use the latest windows setup file, however there was no option to deploy it as service; and it does not have the special files needed for deploy it as service / or configure it.

I had to go for an existing server folder, copy it to a new machine (to a ‘default folder’ in C:\), and then execute the following in an administrator command prompt:

asmt --init --account=SyncthingServiceAcct --name=syncthing --commandline=“”“C:\Program Files\Syncthing\shawl.exe”" run --cwd ““C:\Program Files\Syncthing”” --no-log --priority below-normal --restart-if 3,4 --stop-timeout 10000 – ““C:\Program Files\Syncthing\syncthing.exe””" --home “C:\ProgramData\Syncthing” --no-browser --no-restart --displayname=“Syncthing Service (manual)” --description=“Syncthing securely synchronizes files between two or more computers in real time.”

This works now, however I would like to recommend to have back the option as it was previously available. Thank you,

What advantage does running Syncthing as a Windows Service have over using Task Scheduler to start on boot?
