Startup Control Panel
---------------------
by Mike Lin (mlin@monmouth.com)
Startup Control Panel is a nifty control panel applet that allows you
to control what programs run at system startup. I wrote it because
I was tired of digging through the registry all the time; I hope you
like it!
TO INSTALL:
Simply run install.exe from the zip. It will extract the compressed
program file to your control panel.
TO USE:
Open control panel and select "Startup".
You are presented with a dialog box with several tabs. Each tab
represents a different method of starting a program at system
startup. These include:
Startup (user) - Run the program from the current user's Startup
folder.
Startup (common) - Run the program from the common (all users) Startup
folder (NT only)
HKLM / Run - Run the program from the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE (all users)
Registry key.
HKCU / Run - Run the program from the HKEY_CURRENT_USER Registry key.
Services - Run these system services before the user logs on. This
is usually used for things like virus scanners.
Run Once - These programs are run once and once only at the next
system startup.
To add an item to a list, right-click some blank space in the list
and select "New...". Here you can enter a descriptive name for the
program, and the path to the program's executable (you can also
browse for it).
To modify an existing item, right-click it and select "Edit...".
To delete an item, right-click it and select Delete.
You can also drag & drop files from Windows Explorer into one of
the lists to add it to the list.
