Node-Red stopped... sort of

[UnborN]

@tony1

but why is it rejecting being run from NSSM as not a valid Win32 application?

what have you tried ?
a quick search on the forum reveals many results for NSSM configuration for NR.

[Solved] Running as a service on windows

I also tried using the following method which worked as provided by @dceejay https://gist.github.com/dceejay/576b4847f0a17dc066db nssm install Node-RED "c:\Users\\"%USERNAME%"\AppData\Roaming\npm\node-red.cmd" nssm set Node-RED AppDirectory "c:\Users\\"%USERNAME%"\.node-red" nssm set Node-RED AppParameters "-u c:\Users\\"%USERNAME%"\.node-red > c:\temp\node-red.log" nssm set Node-RED Description "A wiring tool for the Internet of Things"```

I think its best for debugging to run it from the command prompt first and then set it up as a service
