Version 2.5 Doesn't Autorun #352

Open madnox opened 3 years ago

Been using 2.3 for a while on my 2010 MBP. Been great, fixed my issue of restarting all the time.

Updated it to 2.5 and it no longer would run at start up, not sure why, but I reverted back to 2.3 and it does run at startup.

Maybe I should make another post, but would also be nice to have an option to have it default to the Integrated option from the start rather than dynamic.

Thanks so much!

Thanks for the report @madnox. I'm not sure why that would be the case. Can you try the following?

Quitting and deleting gfxCardStatus
Removing gfxCardStatus from your login items in System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login Items
Downloading v2.5 and moving it to your /Applications folder
Starting gfxCardStatus again

Then reboot and see if it starts up as expected.

Same problem here, switched down to 2.3 again. Also 2.5 was having trouble handling sleep mode, would almost always crash the system. I´m on an MBP mid 2010 with High Sierra installed.

Thanks for the heads up. I ended up just manually adding it to the Login Items area.

Edit: still did not autorun after your steps.
