Add Syncthing to Windows Autorun for all users (tested on Windows 10):

  1. Hit the Windows key + X

  2. Select "Command Prompt (admin)" or "Windows PowerShell (Admin)" this will open a command prompt with admin rights

  3. Copy and paste this command and hit enter, change the path of your Syncthing executable if necessary:

    REG ADD "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run" /V "Syncthing Service" /t REG_SZ /F /D "C:\syncthing-windows-amd64-v1.8.0\syncthing.exe -no-console -no-browser"
