You must place your cmd in the RunOnceEx registry key ... in each file you set the next cmd to execute ... for reboot use "shutdown -r -t xx" (where xx are the seconds)

Goodbye.

RunOnceEx registry key ?

can you give me an example please? (I'm new in all of this)

this is a page from the unattended guide that explains about runonceex

http://unattended.msfn.org/intermediate/me...s/runonceex.htm

hmm, It don't have to be RunoncEX

Heres what I do to start something after the reboot.

In this example I'm opening the Fonts folder which register's the Fonts I have added.

Shouldn't be too hard to modify that to call your *.cmd file

Just add it to your cleanup.cmd right before the Shutdown

NOTICE: Its not RunoncEX but simply Runonce I have experimented and added like 10 things there as a test, all work just fine as long as they are correct Path's. This also goes to the Current User and can be applied to other Users.

REG ADD HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Runonce /V RegisterFonts /D "%SystemRoot%\explorer.exe /e,/root,%systemroot%\Fonts"

BTW, The reason I don't use Runoncex is I have had occasions where certain software added something there and i don't want to Jack with it...
