[RESOLVED] Auto Launch Windows 10

[zoopcrewkid]

Hi,

 

I'm having a hard time getting GameEx Arcade Edition to auto startup with Windows 10. I added it as a shortcut to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\StartUp and still no luck. It shows up in start up apps, but it doesn't launch. Has anyone else had this issue?

Try this https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4026268/windows-10-change-startup-apps

Put it here instead:

C:\Users\[User]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

Still no luck. I tried deleting the shortcut and recreating it. It shows up in the startup apps, but doesn't auto launch. Maybe windows is blocking it. I have the shortcut running as administrator.

Okay. In witch case. Put something like this in the startup folder and delete what you have. Tested just a couple of days ago. Probably works straight out the box for you.

 

StartGameEx.bat

PS: Believe Windows 10 is just trying to be secure. Batch files still work with latest win 10.

That did the trick! Thank you
