startup - Application Start Before Windows Explorer -
some installation applications stop (or appear stop) normal windows booting. computer starts, user logs in , installation program starts before others (like windows explorer).
how can replicate behaviour in own program?
e.g.
- os boot
- login
- the program runs, updates etc.
- the rest of programs run (e.g. windows explorer , ever runs on startup)
if want start application before shell starts, can add value userinit
value in registry. in key:
hkey_local_machine\software\microsoft\windows nt\currentversion\winlogon
there value named userinit
. change program run before userinit.exe. example, start notepad before shell/everything else initialized:
c:\windows\system32\notepad.exe,c:\windows\system32\userinit.exe
use commas separate programs should started.
this works windows xp, vista, , 7.
