Yeah, that’s a fair use-case.

My assumption is that most people running a server will be running it headless. In this scenario, the easiest way to administer Syncthing is by exposing its web UI to other machines (properly password-protected), rather than RDPing in and using some tray utility. Therefore SyncTrayzor is pretty useless here.

For running Syncthing as a service, see [http://docs.syncthing.net/users/autostart.html#run-independent-of-user-login](http://docs.syncthing.net/users/autostart.html#run-independent-of-user-login) and [Syncthing Windows Installer](https://forum.syncthing.net/t/syncthing-windows-installer/2009). Pay attention to the warnings about running the service as an unprivileged user!
