About this tag
Startup tasks in Windows Azure allow you to run scripts or executables when a web or worker role starts. These tasks can be used to configure the environment, install software, or enable features like Classic ASP. Elevated privileges are often required for such tasks. The WebPI command line can be used within startup tasks to install packages. Understanding startup tasks is essential for customizing cloud role instances in Azure.
