Order of startup

Post by phil22407 »

I have tweak ui trying to autologon, but a have another program (tiny personal firewall) loading at the same time, and it apperars to mess up the return for the autologon. Is there a way to change the order of the programs that are running at startup so they don't conflict? Thanks.

I cant speak from personal experience, but I did read a post about this a while back. the answer given then was no, windows decides which order things are loaded in.

I hope you find a solution for your problem

Does the program let you change the order of startup, or just if you do or don't startup. Thanks.

Phil

PS Which version also?

You could probably write a batch file in DOS that sleeps for x number of seconds minutes before launching the firewall executable. You would place the .BAT file in your startup folder and not the shortcut to the firewall .EXE.
