Wininit for XP

[justacruzr2]

Is there a wininit for XP that you can use to perform a task on startup like the 9x series OS's could.  I need to rename a couple folders that Windows won't allow while it's running.  If there is...how do I use it?  Is it just a text file?  Thanks.

Thanks for the tip.  Unfortunately, the web pages don't exist anymore probably due to age.  But it did show the registry key for file rename operations and how to do that so I will try that.

Forgot to add that the web pages for the app are what don't exist anymore.
