How can I run an app at startup?


Recommended Posts

I have some a single running .exe file (Y'z Dockbar, to be exact) that I want to run on startup after installing Win XP. I opened up the msconfig file hoping to modify it to add an entry to run this app at startup. It was gibberish. Is there any app that can edit the msconfig file or some .bat or .reg entries to add to an unattended CD to accompish this task? I browsed through the registry but couldn't find anything useful.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. It would be nice to know this because it could be modified for a variety of apps I may want to run on startup in the future...

Thanks...

just open notepad and paste this in and save the file as a .reg

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"Y'z Dockbar"="C:\\Program Files\\Y'z Dockbar\\Dockbar.exe"

just replace the location places with wherever ur dock is installed to, if you want to use this in an unattended just add it to any other reg tweaks u may be using.
