farte Posted June 25, 2004 Share Posted June 25, 2004 @prathapmlTried that tweak myself at the end of my batch file but failed where do you put this tweak? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homiebrah Posted June 25, 2004 Share Posted June 25, 2004 It would be after the commands to install your apps. Have the key imported into the registry, then use shutdown.exe to reboot the computer. Once the reboot is complete, the startup apps will be gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SMELVIN Posted June 27, 2004 Author Share Posted June 27, 2004 right got that part working is there a tweak to get apps to startup such asobjectdock when windows starts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denney Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 If you know where the program is located you could add an entry like this in your reg file:[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]"SomeProgram"="PathToExeFile"Edit: Could also do that for HKEY_CURRENT_USER as well.

MCT Posted June 27, 2004 Share Posted June 27, 2004 just put there path in run, or move shortcut 2 the startup folder (easier, but less professional, in my opinion)regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
