I am brand new to HS (in fact bought HS4 months ago, and only now getting around to installing and setting up) -- I am moving from SmartThings (the hub keeps going SENILE and forgetting how to work).
Has anyone in the Windows 10 world attempted to setup the HS4 software to RUN AS SERVICE? What this means is that if the computer is rebooted - the software loads and runs without a user having logged in. I looked all over the place in the HS4 setup pages and I do not see this as a setting.
I have put into the STARTUP folder in Windows 10 - and this works GREAT - once a user logs in. But until a user is logged in - it does not run. This really should be a feature of the software. I am running the SW on a laptop with a brand new battery - which helps to keep the system up and running in the event of power loss. But, if the power should go off long enough to drain the battery, or a system update happens and reboots the laptop (yes, I know I can prevent this in the UPDATES settings). I am just saying that the application shoud have the ability to RUN AS SERVICE,
Any insight is helpful.
