Start with Windows for all users?
« on: August 03, 2009, 04:45 PM »
I have been recommending ProcessTamer recently for people that have PCs from around 2002-2004 and have really slow processors.  It seems to make a big difference for them.  However I did notice that the "Start with Windows" setting only makes Process Tamer start for the user who sets that check box.  How do I make it start for any user that logs in?

That's a very good question..
You can't do it from within the program itself (except to run the program as each user and choose start with windows for each one).
But you can do it manually by disabling the "start with windows" option from the program itself, and then going and adding a shortcut to Process Tamer to the ALL User\Start Menu\Startup folder, which is located somewhere in the C:\Documents and Settings directory.
