# Register as a Windows Service
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To register Gitea as a Windows service, open a command prompt (cmd) as an Administrator,
 | 
						|
then run the following command:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
sc create gitea start= auto binPath= ""C:\gitea\gitea.exe" web --config "C:\gitea\custom\conf\app.ini""
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Do not forget to replace `C:\gitea` with the correct Gitea directory.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Open "Windows Services", search for the service named "gitea", right-click it and click on
 | 
						|
"Run". If everything is OK Gitea will be reachable on `http://localhost:3000` (or the port
 | 
						|
that was configured).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Unregister as a service
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To unregister Gitea as a service, open a command prompt (cmd) as an Administrator and run:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
sc delete gitea
 | 
						|
```
