Feature Request: Auto launch with Groove and System Tray mode. #12

Closed ghost closed 3 years ago

ghost commented 3 years ago

Is it possible for it to automatically open when I open Groove? And having it minimized to system tray. I think it would be pretty cool.

It is indeed possible. I implemented it using Task Scheduler to run the program when Groove is created. To set this up, I suggest you look at the improvements I made.

This functionality is planned to be released soon.

While you're waiting @Javonski , this is actually pretty easy to accomplish within Windows itself using Task Scheduler:

The path to Groove Music you need is C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.ZuneMusic_10.20122.11121.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\Music.UI.exe (which you can also find yourself by following the steps in the linked post and then just finding an entry for Groove Music in Event Viewer).

If you want Groovy to start minimised automatically then, during the Start a Program bit while setting up the task, put cmd as the Command and then /c start "GroovyRP" /min "path\to\groovy\executable" for Arguments.

Hope that helps!

Just realised you said minimised to system tray. My method only minimises to the task bar - I don't know how to hide it to the tray at the moment I'm afraid. 😂 Hopefully this can pull you over until then though.

either way you can script it going to the taskbar without having to open task scheduler
