Folding as a service

This may be a silly question, but here goes anyway. If I run F@H as a service should the console still come up? I thought the idea of running as a service was so you didnt have to have the console open. When I set my comp to run as a service the console still came up. Is this right?

TIA

Ray

I run F@H as a service, and the console or any other window does not come up.

Perhaps try looking in your settings file for something? Not sure really...

if you set it up to run as a service the console should not be open, it will remain open until you reboot the computer after entering the settings (user name, team, etc). once the system is restarted the console should not be open tho, check task manager to see if its running.
