Been using Duplicacy for a while and have a personal WebGUI license. Usually I start it up manually, but I have been trying to get it to start automatically on Windows startup. Following the guide here: Duplicacy User Guide I reference the following location for my service: C:\Users<username>\AppData\Local\Programs\DuplicacyWebEdition\duplicacy_web_win_x64_1.7.2.exe. However, when attempting to get Duplicacy to start up automatically, this just results in an unlicensed version of Duplicacy starting up in the background missing all of my configuration. However, if I shut down the process and use my Start Menu link (which appears to reference the exact same file), my licensed version of Duplicacy seems to start up with all my configuration there.
Logs show the following after a start up.

Iāve take a look at some other posts, but canāt seem to find an entry that matches my particular problem. Iām not sure if the issue is related to the fact that it canāt find my license, canāt validate it on start up, or possibly something else? Thanks in advance for your help.
