Problem turning off auto start

(1/1)

Chris:
Hi

I want to turn of "start with Windows". I do this from the options menu, but it always turn itself on!

How does one turn it off?

What is the line in the ini file?

Thanks

Chris

mouser:
hi chris, are you using the latest version 1.05.12?
this was an issue in older versions but i thought it was fixed in the recent builds.

essentially f&r tries to be clever and auto-detect the "start with windows" option by looking in the start menu -> startup directory, and setting and removing the entry there.

so a failure to disable means that its not successful in removing that entry.
to manually remove, just click on your start menu, go to "Programs' -> "Startup" and delete the entry for "Find&Run Robot"

I have been having a weird bug lately.  After a number of startups, FindRun seems to replace the tray startup with the non tray startup.  I have no idea why this is happening and I have no way to reproduce the error!  It's happened a few times now and it's fine after deleting the start menu item and then rechecking auto start in FindRun.  This is less of a bug report and more of a "keep your eyes open."  Like I said, I have no idea how this happens and I cant reproduce it.  Anyone else having this?  If not, I wouldnt worry about it too much... just keep it on the back burner!

it sounds like i need to revisit the startup checking and writing code, maybe move to storing startup trigger in registry which would be a lot simpler and less prone to these issues.
