I need to execute a command the first time a user logs on a computer, but the problem using a Runonce command is that then next unique user to login to the system will not get the command.

I have considered adding a command to the ntuser.dat

Anybody have any sugestions?

R

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CurrentVersion\Runonce ?

I'm not sure about this. But without actually looking, that's my guess. Or something similar. Or a self destroying batch file in the "StartUp" folder of the startmenu that delete's itself.

un-tried suggestion, use runOnce or start-up folder for "Default user"

an other option would be to make a checkfile (e.g. let the script make a %username%.txt file, and check if the textfile does exist in the script)

With the HKLM\runonce, only the first user gets the command

And were trying not to use a tag file for execution...

Use the StubPath in Active Setup. It is designed for exactly that purpose: one time per user setup. Here is a link to how it is set up for a virus. You should do similar, execpt avoid the auto-propogation. I admit, I did not read the article, but a glance suggested it has enough info, If not ... google.

OK i figured it out...

I added RunOnce to HKCU and the behavior was the same as the HKLM RunOnce.

R

What i did mean is add the key under

HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce

every new user will get this profile

I tried that and it didnt work...
