nginx doesn't currently have the ability to run as a Windows service natively. A simple workaround is to create a scheduled task to start the nginx server on system startup

   01. Open notepad and paste the following into a blank text file
   03. Click the Start button ≫ Search Task ≫ Click Task Scheduler
   04. Right click the Task Scheduler Library folder in the top left ≫ Create Basic Task
   05. Name the task nginx startup ≫ Click Next
   06. Select When the computer starts ≫ Click Next
   07. Select Start a program ≫ Click Next
   09. Set the Start in value to C:\Program Files\nginx ≫ Click Next
   10. Click Finish
   11. Reboot to test that nginx with PHP support starts with the system on boot
