# 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
```
