Where to put -background?

It’s said that

In version 1.1.0, you can pass the -background option to the web gui executable to not launch the browser.

where do you put this exactly in Windows?

Right-click the Duplicacy Web Edition desktop icon > Properties > immediately after the blah\duplicacy_web_win_x64_1.1.0.exe string in the Target field… put a space then -background.

I have that icon deleted already.

To be clear, I’m looking to disable the web gui launching on browser every time the OS boots.

You can edit the registry value HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\DuplicacyWebEdition to add the -background option after the path to the web GUI executable.
