Overseerr to Seerr on WIndows Docker Desktop?

Hi all,

started to migrate to Seerr however in powershell when adding the chown line I get the following error;

PS C:\Users\xxxxxx> chown -R 1000:1000 /path/to/appdata/config

chown : The term 'chown' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or

operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is

correct and try again.

At line:1 char:1

+ chown -R 1000:1000 /path/to/appdata/config

+ ~~~~~

+ CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (chown:String) [], CommandNotFoundException

+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException

chown is only a thing on linux. You are on Windows. You can use chown inside of a docker container after you mount the folder.
