Auto Startup on system boot #4

Closed linitfor closed 2 years ago

linitfor commented 2 years ago

Can the app add the option to auto startup on system boot ? This is an useful app. If it can combine into system auto boot, it will become more convenient.

The app does register itself in the system boot startup list. If it doesn't work for you, you can check in the Startup tab of the Task Manager (Ctrl + Shift + Esc).

If you do not see the app in this list, you can create a shortcut to the app executable, and place it in the windows startup folder (Win + R, type shell:startup).

Just noting what I did. (and it starts automatically in my environment)

  1. Create "bin" directory under my home directory.
  2. Move whole directory of ThreeFingersDragOnWindows to the "bin"
  3. Create shortcut of executive under /path/to/ThreeFingersDragOnWindows/bin/Debug/net6.0-windows/ThreeFingersDragOnWindows.exe (It will be created by building the app with current main branch.)
  4. Move shortcut to the directory where it is opend by Win+R -> shell:startup
