SuperF4 doesn't start on boot. #25

Open FloVarie opened 6 years ago

FloVarie commented 6 years ago

I have tried everything... I put it into Start-up folder, I enabled the Auto-Start but it doesn't start on boot. It was working completely fine before I format my pc. What should I do? stefan send welp

Same here, I tried everything from third party apps to Windows Task Scheduler. Its such a pain if I want to Rage quit out of a game without the ability to do a quick shortcut, but to open Windows Start menu, search for SuperF4, firing it up and then to Alt F4. It also seems like SuperF4 is the only program re-enabling the purpose of Alt-F4 so I cant switch either. Please fix, this could be such an awesome program.

You can go to %userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup and drop an shortcut in it

Still having this issue, I have tried putting it in the startup folder, creating a task to start it, enabling startup on boot within the application settings, nothing gets it to start up properly.

This is easy to solve. You have to create an elevated program shortcut without UAC prompt. Then you place the shortcut in the startup folder. It is a bit annoying to manually create the shortcut but there are programs to make it simple. I use WinAero Tweaker. https://winaero.com/create-elevated-shortcut-to-skip-uac-prompt-in-windows-10/

The link shows you how to do it manually or with the app. After the shortcut is created I save it in SuperF4's folder and copy a shortcut to the startup folder in %userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

Works perfectly.
