Running Software at Start Up

Hi All,

I have an application that I want to run at Start Up but I am constantly
getting a message from the Software Explorer to say that it is
'unclassified' and has been blocked from running. I'm able to run it
manually ok but would really like to have it strting automatically. Is there
anyway to get it 'classified' or another work around?

Thanks

Re: Running Software at Start Up

Hi,
Is DEP (Data Execution Prevention) blocking the program?

Right-click Computer> Properties> Advanced system settings> Advanced>
Performance> Data Execution Prevention> Turn on DEP for all programs and
services except those I select. Place the program in the list.

Hope this helps,
Don

I believe that it is Windows Defender that is blocking it. Open WD and go to Tools/Software Explorer and see if you can enable it there.

You may have better success by using Task Scheduler to schedule it as a
logon task.
