cd c:\rustdesk-server-windows-x64
pm2 start hbbs.exe -- -r <The address of the host where hbbr is running> -m <Registered email address>
pm2 start hbbr.exe -- -m <Registered email address>
pm2 save
```

### View log

pm2 log hbbs
```

For example, the new registered email address is test@test.com, and the public address of hbbr is test.hbbr.com
```
pm2 delete hbbr hbbs
cd c:\rustdesk-server-windows-x64
pm2 start hbbs.exe -- -r test.hbbr.com -m test@test.com
