Running Syncthing Automatically and Hidden on Log on.

Here are the steps to run Syncthing automatically on startup and hide the terminal window on Windows: 

 Create a Task in Task Scheduler: 

 Press `Win + R`, type `taskschd.msc`, and press Enter to open Task Scheduler.    

 In the Task Scheduler, click on "Create Task..." in the right panel. In the "General" tab, provide a name for the task (e.g., "Syncthing Autostart"). Select "Run whether user is logged on or not" and check "Do not store password" if you don't want to provide a password. Check "Run with highest privileges". 

 

 Configure the Trigger: Go to the "Triggers" tab and click on "New...". Set the "Begin the task" dropdown to "At log on". Click "OK". 

 

 

 Configure the Action: -Go to the "Actions" tab and click on "New...". -Set "Action" to "Start a program". -Click "Browse..." and navigate to the Syncthing executable (`syncthing.exe`). -In the "Add arguments" field, add `-no-console -no-browser` to hide the terminal and prevent Syncthing from opening the web interface on startup. -Click "OK". 

 

 Set Conditions and Settings: 

 -Go to the "Conditions" tab. Ensure "Start the task only if the computer is on AC power" is unchecked if you want it to run on battery power as well. -Go to the "Settings" tab and ensure "Allow task to be run on demand" is checked. You can also set other preferences as needed. 

 Finish and Test: -Click "OK" to finish creating the task. -You will be prompted to enter your user account password if you chose to run the task with highest privileges. -To test it, right-click the task in the Task Scheduler library and select "Run". 

 This setup should start Syncthing automatically when you log in and keep the terminal window hidden.
