What does the scr.bat file do, and does it need interactive access to the desktop? Remember that things run as startup or shutdown scripts run under the local system account, non-interactively. It would help to know what this file does and where it is located on your machine.

Well, It simply deletes a file named "abc.txt" on My D drive. It is for the test purposes. Does not require any parameters.

scr.bat contains only one Line and is located in D:\mamoon\

<code> Wscript d:\mamoon\vfptest.vbs</code>

And, vfptest.vbs deletes a file named abc.txt located in same folder

<code> strFileName = "D:\Mamoon\abc.txt"

Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

objFSO.DeleteFile(strFileName) </code>

It works when from command I write "scr.bat".

What do you mean by Local System Account, is it "Privilleges of USER GROUP of system". By the way EveryOne group has Full Rights to D drive.

Sorry if format is not clean, bcz my system is not putting the Quote tags right. Thanks
