The storage type 'gcs' is not supported

For some reason the service gives the following message, but when the gui is running, it’s fine.

You’re likely running an older version for the service. The version run by the service is usually under c:\Program Files (x86)\Duplicacy.

You can uninstall the Duplicacy service in the Windows service manager and then run the latest installer as administrator to install the service again.
