How to start synergy client from the command line (Windows)

Question

Starting the dialog box is easily enough:

In my case:

C:\Program Files\Synergy\synergy.exe

But then I have to click on "Start".

Is there a flag I can add that would start the client whereby skipping the dialog box

Can't seem to find any docs on this.

Been a while since I used Synergy as I switched to Synergy+ a year or two ago. When I run Synergy+ it has an Options section and in that Options section is a "AutoStart..." button. Do you have something similar with Synergy?

Oh, actually I just found the synergy docs section ("autostarting") that you're after:

Start synergy and click the Configure... button by the text Automatic Startup. The Auto Start dialog will pop up. If an error occurs then correct the problem and click Configure again.

On the Auto Start dialog you'll configure synergy to start or not start automatically when the computer starts or when you log in. You need Administrator access rights to start synergy automatically when the computer starts. The dialog will let you know if you have sufficient permission.
