## Run as a Service
Instead of running in Docker you can install it as a service in Windows or Linux.
## Windows Service
1. Make sure you have the ASP.NET Core Runtime 8 installed: [https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet/8.0](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet/8.0)
1. Get the latest zip file from the Releases page and extract it to your host.
1. Open the `appsettings.json` file and replace the `LogLevel` `Path` to a path on your host.
1. In `appsettings.json` replace the `Database` `Path` to a path on your host.
1. When using Windows paths, make sure to escape the slashes. For example: `D:\\RdtClient\\db\\rdtclient.db`

5. When using Windows paths, make sure to escape the slashes. For example: `D:\\RdtClient\\db\\rdtclient.db`
6. Do one of these:
* Run `RdtClient.Web.exe` to start the client.
* Run `service-install.bat` to install the client as a service. This will install `RdtClient.Web.exe` as a service which make the client start in the backgorund when the computer starts. (You probably want to do this if you are going to use this with Sonarr etc...)
## Linux Service
