Jackett Windows installer service-mode deployment note
For managed Windows deployments, use the official Jackett release asset Jackett.Installer.Windows.exe from the project releases page. The upstream Windows installation notes call out Windows 10 version 1607 or newer, administrator privileges, and .NET prerequisites before running the installer.
Decide during packaging whether the endpoint should run Jackett as a Windows service. The installer exposes an Install as Windows Service option; when installed as a service, the tray icon is mainly for opening, starting, or stopping Jackett, while without the service the tray tool hosts the web server. After install, the local management UI is available at http://127.0.0.1:9117.
For unattended deployments that wrap the installer, avoid blindly reusing an interactive capture: verify the service/startup choice, do not force-launch the app in a system-context deployment, and log the installer run with a valid Windows path such as %WINDIR%\Temp\Jackett-Install.log.
