Are you running Caddy with the --resume flag? You’re meant to, if you’re using the API. Command Line — Caddy Documentation

You can remove these, restating the defaults is not useful.

You can remove this as well, setting disable to false doesn’t do anything.

Thanks. I had to add that to the end of the following command
sc.exe create caddy start= auto binPath= “YOURPATH\caddy.exe run --resume”
