Startup

[Guest]

Good morning,

I would like to automatically launch a script when my computer is booted up
and have it run in the background continuously (as it is a looping vbscript
with a 1hr pause in it). How can I achieve this. I do not want it to lauch
for every user who login but rather once at boot time. What registry hack
can I use?

Someone previously mentioned that I should use the
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunServices"
key but it did not appear in my registry. Should it automatically be present
in XPs registry. Is this the proper place to achieve my goal.

Thank you,

Daniel

You can use the RunServices key you show.
No, it won't be present if it has not been used before.
