I have a fairly basic understanding on how a torrent client works and how to get the most of my torrents but something i can not quite grasp is how daemons works.

This is how i think it works in my personal case (Windows 10 / 11)

1. You set Deluge into thin mode meaning it's just a User Interface, not the one handling the heavy lifting
2. You set the .lnk file to deluged.exe into your startup folder / settings
3. Now Deluge(d) it's going to start with your PC each time you boot, resuming ur seeds and downloads.
4. To monitor your download progress you enter the (thin) client

So if i were to do this for the first time i should set the client to thin and run Deluged.exe first so I do not need to reboot my pc? Is this correct? Would i keep downloading my files or just seeding them?
