  I would like to add a program to the start in setting in motion.  The program is already loaded.    How can I do?

  There are several ways to do so. And here's one:

  In my computer or Windows explorer, open your startup folder-

  C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup.

  or if you want to do this for all users, C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup.

  Then, leaving open, open a second instance of the desktop or Windows explorer and navigate to the program you want to start automatically. Their right and drag the program to your startup folder. When you release the right mouse button, the choices that you are given, choose "Create shortcut here."

  Hello

  To autostart, a program that does not have this option in its installation just copy the icon to your
  Startup folder.

  All users this copy:

  "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup.

  Click right button start - all users to explore and navigate to this folder.

  ------------------------------------

  For specific copy of users to:

  "C:\Users\The user Name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup"

  Use start - computer or Windows Explorer to access that.

• Failed to add a program to the DEP

  Here's the question.  I play Day of Defeat: Source steam.  After one of their updates I started getting errors when I leave the game.  He told me that DEP closed the program.  I go to settings to turn off DEP for hl2.exe (the program for the game that crashes), but get an error saying that the program SHOULD run with DEP.  Now, just check the number, I take on my laptop that I use for the trip.  Running the same OS and I have exactly the same problem.  I fought back with this trying to get DEP to allow this program to run, but he used.

  I did the following:
  1 has attempted to add hl2.exe with the exception of the DEP.  FAILED
  2. enable DEP for programs and Windows services only.  FAILED
  3. people with disabilities all antivirus and firewalls. FAILED
  4 performed a clean boot by following the instructions on the windows support and repeated 1 and 2.  FAILED
  5 reinstall the game completely on both machines.  FAILED.
  Hl2.exe replaced with a copy of another steam game.  LET ME ADD THE PROGRAM TO DEP BUT ALWAYS CRASHED WITH EXACTLY THE SAME PROBLEM THEN WOULDN'T LET ME ADD BACK TO THE DEP.  FAILED
  6. update all the drivers I could think.  FAILED

  I did restart after each of these steps in order to ensure.

  I'm at my wits end at the moment.  I contacted STEAM on this subject, but they keep linking me to windows help links and have no idea why I can't add it to the list of DEP exceptions.  STEAM insists that it is a Windows problem, even if I'm having this problem on my desktop AND my laptop.

  Both systems are well above the recommended game system configuration, two systems working for several years with this game up to now, the two systems running the same operating system.

  Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit

  It's weird because I can play the game very well, but it crashes whenever I stop.  It's really annoying.

• I would like to add a program to the start safe mode

  Hello

  I have a VBScript script that I created to add a little extra security to my machines and I running normal start very well. What I want to do is to prevent users not allowed to Dodge it and boot into safe mode to access my machine.
  Y at - it a registry key that I can modify my script even in my machine to start in safe mode?

  The answer should be "No, it isn't" like Safe Mode is designed to use only the components of the system designed by Windows.

  You might consider disabling the F8 key to prevent the safe boot mode.  Here are some links that deal with the ways to do this: -.

  If you are a victim of this secure, you must also set the BIOS to prevent start-up into an external hole [via USB, CD/DVD, network] and put a BIOS password to prevent anyone changing this setting.

• How to add programs to the start of the file using Vista

  How to add programs to the start of the file using Vista

  Hi Harry,.

  Oddly enough, you can actually do it in msconfig except if it is already there and simply not checked as opposed to not being do not at all (although you would think that they would understand this option).

  The easiest way is to add the program (or a shortcut to the program) in the folder all Menu Programs Startup.   Here is the procedure: http://www.ehow.com/how_5098465_add-startup-programs.html.  Remember, to do this, you must either a shortcut existing (perhaps on the desktop or elsewhere in the menu all programs) or you need to find the source file (probably somewhere in C:\Program Files depending on what you want to add) and either copy it and add it to the startup folder or right-click on it and create a shortcut to copy into the startup folder.  Once you reboot, this program starts during the initial commissioning process and you will now be able to control using msconfig.exe, if you wish.

  Another option is to do this by using the registry editor.  If you decide to try this, first create a restore AND system restoration point backup of the registry before you begin.  Here is the procedure: http://www.ehow.com/how_7304438_add-program-msconfig-regedit.html.  I recommend to use this ONLY if the previous procedure does not work for some reason any as long as that the procedure is simpler and safer.

  If you want a simpler way to manage and control startup programs, you can try it free WinPatrol http://www.winpatrol.com/download.html that change monitors for startup programs if you set it to run in real-time so that you know when to try new programs are added to your Start menu and, for the purposes of this question includes an Add button which opens a link to a window of Windows Explorer where you can browse the program you want to add, click open to select and then add it directly to the commissioning.  If you prefer it does not work all the time, you can simply uncheck the box which includes this program and it will work only when you choose to run (but at the start, will work as an indication otherwise or configured).  It will appear not in the start menu in all programs (Finally, WinPatrol is, but not programs, it adds to the start), but it will appear in WinPatrol (which also lets you manage what you want or not start with checkboxes as in msconfig) and sure in msconfig - but only after a reboot is complete the process of adding.

  I hope this helps.  Personally, I use WinPatrol myself and let it run in real time.  Since I do a lot of installations, it helped me often prevent the addition of a startup item I haven't really need and reduces how many times I actually need to check what is happening out there.

  If this answers your question without the need to repost in another forum, please mark it as an answer.  If this isn't the case, then of course you must republish as suggested above.

  Good luck!

• After you restore rundll32.exe, I restarted my computer all the icons on my desktop and all programs in the start menu disappeared

  Every thing seems to have returned to normal, but when I restarted my computer all the icons on my desktop and all programs in the start menu disappeared, and yet, all programs are always in: Control Panel > add/REMOVE programs.   I can still connect to the internet by going to-Start > my computer > view > go to the desktop. How to get back all the icons on my desktop. I tried a click right, but in vain. I also ran a scan complete antivirus. any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you Joel S. Before I could put your advice into practice a friend recommended a friend who advised me to do a system restore, which he said he would be happy to do it for me. So look like an easy option, I agreed. It seems to have solved the problem (fingers crossed), but now it seems that I need to format the hard drive. If you have any tips on formatting hard drive I'm all ears. Thank you Owen

• Why are most of my grayed out icons and my programs do not appear in all programs on the start menu?

  My computer crashed the other day. I returned with a system restore. I have scanned for viruses. Now most of my icons (computer desktop and folders) is grayed out. When I click on "all programs" in the start menu, none is listed even though they are still on my computer and still work.

  Hi homeWJ,

  Method 1

  See the Microsoft article below to download and install the fix, check if it helps.

  When you point to "Programs" on a Windows XP-based computer, the program list does not appear, or the list of programs is empty

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/941248

  Method 2

  If the previous step fails, then analyze and remove any malware or computer virus infections and check if that helps.

  I am on 7 and want to create a folder under all programs on the start menu to contain all my design programs. How can I do this? There is no empty space to click in the menu that appears on right-click and choose new.

  If you want to create the new folder in the start menu

  Right click on all programs< on="" newly="" opened="">< double="" click="" on="" programs="">< create="" new="">< rename="">< add="" the="" shortcuts="" of="" your="" programs="" to="" created="" folder.="">

  Now you can access the folder in the list of programs.

  Hope it solves your problem.

• BlackBerry smartphones can not see Desktop Manager in my list of all programs on the start menu

  I just installed the Blackberry Desktop Manager for Blackberry 7100i Nextel (version 4.1.0.376).

  It does not appear under all programs on my Winxp start menu.    It seemed to install correctly, but it just doesn't appear in the start menu.    I removed it by following the instructions (requiring the removal of certain registry entries and files and more using Add/Remove programs in the control panel).

  I reinstalled the program and it will not always be displayed on the start menu.    I can run a couple of .exe files and run it manually, but I don't get the full program.

  I am the administrator of my pc Windows XP Professional.

  Any ideas on what could be the problem?

  Hi and welcome to the Forums!

  Yes, that would do makes a difference. For reference, the best procedure must first install the full package of DTM (what version you need for your PIM version if you plan to synchronize via attached USB/BT), then, at the top of the DTM installed, your bundle of BONES of carriers (which modifies DTM so that it can provide you with options that apply to you).

  You can edit your previous post - but it's actually better not unless there is a real error needing correction. It is good to leave the wire in place just in case someone in the future should have a similar situation... so that they can find your description and solution and I hope to find their response without the need to post a new thread.

  Oh yes, once you are sure that it is resolved, please don't forget to mark the thread as solved.

  Best!
