Windows 10 Program not starting at startup/logon??-- HOW COME

[pootler]

HI

New to the forums

I am running win 10 ( 1607 ) on a Lenovo thinkpad tablet.

I am using it in my car for satnav, music etc.

I would like to have the car frontend software ( centrafuse - old but ok ) start when the tablet boots,
but I cannot seem to get this working.

I have tried many different methods, including group policy ( logon ), registry ( HK local machine etc), and also shortcut in the startup folder.

NONE of these methods work??

I have the correct path for the executable, and have even used third party start up programs to no avail .

Other programs start correctly, but this centrafuse.exe refuses to do so??

Strangely, I installed a ''lite'' version of windows 10 - and it worked straight away!

Unfortunately, these lite versions have too many other things removed which causes aspects of the software to not work :-(

If anyone more enlightened than me ( that makes most people) can help me, I would be very grateful.

Many Thanks

Pootler

There are numerous links in this search that indicate that centrafuse does not work with Windows 10. I strongly suggest you look in the Windows 10 store for compatible apps instead.

Hi Thanks for the reply.

I have used Centrafuse with windows 10 for the past 3 years.

It works just fine

Still can't get it to run at start up though


THanks

Most applications should start up fine with the methods you've tried. I would look in the event log for errors regarding the application they may tell you why it's not starting

Thanks for the reply,

Someone suggested ; Create Elevated Shortcut without UAC prompt in Windows 10

Put shortcut into start folder.......... YAY!!

Merry christmas all!
