Running EMBY as a service

[Sgjumper82 1]

Emby Users,

I have been searching for a way to enable Emby to run as a service, and today I found the answer.

It's actually very simple.

Command: Replace YourServiceName with the name of your service. (As seen below I named mine EMBY)
sc create "YourServiceName" binPath= "C:\Path\To\YourApp.exe"

PATH: Replace USERNAME with your username (If the default Installation folder was changed, you will need to locate the correct path)
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Emby-Server\system\EmbyServer.exe

CREATING THE SERVICE
Run Command prompt as administrator
Run these 2 commands in order.
1) sc create "Emby" binPath= "C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Emby-Server\system\EmbyServer.exe"
2) sc config "Emby" start= auto

Restart your computer

DO NOT LOGIN

Wait a few minutes after the login prompt appears and test access from another device.
