Windows Configuration

This section covers Windows-specific configuration tasks after Arc has been installed, including running Arc as a background service, starting Arc manually, and upgrading to a new version.

In This Section

  • How to Start Arc — How to run the Arc executable, access the Arc UI in a browser, and understand the settings file created on first run.

  • Setting Up Arc as a Windows Service — Run Arc as a persistent Windows service so it starts automatically and is always available.

  • Upgrading Arc for TM1 — How to replace the Arc executable to upgrade to a newer version, whether Arc is running as a service or a local process.

Tip: If Arc is running as a Windows service, always stop the service before replacing the arc.exe file during an upgrade.
