My laptop requires user interaction to accept a logon banner announcement prior to opening Win10.
I need Mission Planner to run even when a user is not available to log in.
I am having trouble running Mission Planner as a Win10 service using nssm.exe (service error 3).
Does anyone have any experience/advice in this area.

How have you configured it with NSSM? Have you tried with the Windows-provided tool, sc?
In nssm I only input the path to Mission Planner and set it to start automatically.
From what I’ve researched, sc is not an option since Mission Planner is a Non-Service Windows executable.
Yeah I don’t think it will work. Mission Planner isn’t designed to run headless. I managed to create a service that launches the .exe, but it closes again after a minute. You might have more luck with MAVProxy.
I just tried it out of curiosity and managed to connect my FC to MAVProxy running in a Virtualbox Linux… you should be able to run VBox headless as a service or scheduled task.
?
Thanks for the input guys, I think I will look into the ‘Scheduled Task’ option next.
