To register the service, assuming the application and configuration are already downloaded and set up in the C:\discord-invite directory, use the following commands:

sc.exe create discord-invite `
  binPath= "C:\discord-invite\discord-invite.exe -c your_channel_id -t your_bot_token" `
  DisplayName= "Discord Invite Link Generator" `
  start= auto

sc.exe start discord-invite
sc.exe query discord-invite

Uninstall service

sc.exe stop discord-invite
sc.exe query discord-invite
sc.exe delete discord-invite

Alternative option

If you use a web server nginx with lua support, for example such as OpenResty, you can use a lua script that implements the same logic of issuing invites directly in the web server. More details in lua/README.md
