FR: Improve unattended mode documentation

Open momorientes opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

What are you trying to do?

Run tailscale in unattended mode as described here.

How should we solve this?

Improve the documentation to reflect that unattended mode can be accessed via right click tray icon -> preferences -> run unattended. It took me a solid 10mins to understand that "unattended mode" is not some arbitrary windows feature I've never heard of but rather a config option.

What is the impact of not solving this?

No response

Anything else?

Topic to be documented.

Setup Unattended. Uses the logged in adminstrative user at that time.

How can i change the "Tailscale already in use by ....\someaccount to some other account How can i "reset" "forget" this behavior

C:\Program Files (x86)\Tailscale IPN\tailscale-ipn /uninstall C:\Program Files (x86)\Tailscale IPN\tailscale-ipn /install

Still sees the "old" user and does not allow a different local admin account

tailscale-ipn-setup-1.30.2.exe reinstall does also no allow to change this "Tailscale already in use by
