Registry

Im tryin to make a .reg file so when you run it, it makes a program run at startup..is it possible? ive tried but i dont kno what im doing. :blink:

thanks

 

What program you trying to run?

 

Does it matter? :tongue:

 

We want to know anyway....... could take a few guesses though.

 

Some programs you can just change and ask to start it up when windows loads.

 

yes i know.. but i want to know is it possible to make a .reg file using notepad to make a program start just by runnin that .reg file?

 

Oh perhaps this is for AKW then. :lol:

I got the wrong end. :lol:

Sorry Dan. :wub:

 

Drag the program to into the Startup folder by going to Start>All Programs>Startup? I did that for my onscreen dock and desktop calendar and it worked. ^_^

Why you want to make a rigistery key? Just put it in your starting folder. Windows button > Programs > and then there's a folder what windows should automatic load it.

 

I said this in another topic.
go to Start -> Run -> type in Regedit -> Then navigate yourself to here:
hkey_local_machine\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\run

 

plz dont tell me ur trying to make a virus :/

 

If it were a virus why would be want it to start up everytime he starts up?

My guess is its a proxt program or something he wants to start up automatically instead of manually everytime.

 

Okay, like Jon said, go to:

Then when you are in there just right click and add a new string value. After you do that you enter the process you want to start. Then you should have it boot. If this doesn't work, just post in here again.

(REMEMBER it MUST be directed correctly... C:\Program Files\User\---- )

 

See, just listen to John and all is good
