Adjusting start menu startup
I am trying to manipulate the startup menu to execute a program. I have a
..bat file in:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
that reads:
---------------------
@echo on
rem copy the shared folder to startup (assumed it is mounted on Z)
xcopy /s /z /i "z:\adit\*.*" "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start
Menu\Programs\Startup"
exit
----------------------
The purpose is to to take a program (or programs) that appears on an
externally mounted disk and copy them to the startup menu so that when XP
starts up, these programs will also get executed (the program(s) names
change at every startup).
The bat file copies the .exes to the startup directory but XP doesn't
execute them. How can I get XP to execute these programs automatically upon
startup (can be at the end of the entire startup sequence)? Is there some
registry setting that needs to be changed? Is there some alternate "trick"
I can use to pull this off?
Thanks,
Hank

Re: Adjusting start menu startup
I've been watching your post since I am curious about this. I'm not an
expert, but I have an idea.
You want to:
1. Windows Starts
2. Batch file is launched from Startup folder
3. Files are copied to a folder
4. Copied files are launched
Right?
Your batch commands now just copy from disk to Start Menu\Startup. Why
copy to Startup and not a temp folder?
Couldn't you output the files that are copied to another batch file and
run it?
xcopy /s /z /i "z:\adit\*.*" C:\TEMP
xcopy /n "z:\adit\*.*" >C:\TEMP\Launch.bat
call C:\TEMP\Launch.bat
Something like that?

Re: Adjusting start menu startup
I think it needs tweaking, good luck!
PS: Do you want to see the command window, or have it run hidden?

Re: Adjusting start menu startup
This line:
xcopy /n "z:\adit\*.*" >C:\TEMP\Launch.bat
should be changed to this
xcopy /n "z:\adit\*.exe" >C:\TEMP\Launch.bat
no?

Re: Adjusting start menu startup
I did something different based on your idea:
xcopy /s /z /i "z:\adit\*.*" C:\TEMP
dir /b "z:adit\*.*">C:\temp\launch.bat
call c:\temp\launch.bat
erase /q c:\temp\*.*
This way launch.bat has a list of files so not only .exe can run.
Thannks,

Re: Adjusting start menu startup
It works now?
Is the second line a typo:
dir /b "z:adit\*.*">C:\temp\launch.bat
z:adit\
z:\adit\
I have tips to launch command windows hidden, if you want.
