How to install Slave as service after client installation?

I installed Deadline client some time ago and I didn’t check the box that says “Install Launcher As A Service”.

I would like to be able to turn on the PC and the Slave window will be running in the background, so it can pick up jobs any time, even when there is no user logged in.

Thanks!

I don’t think it’s possible to do this with out installing again although I’m sure someone from Thinkbox will confirm (I’d also like to know if there is a workaround)

you could always use the auto-login script for Windows

Actually! There is magical stuff for this. Here’s a duplicate thread, and I’ll elaborate on your question there:
