After Reboot Macro exe is not starting automatically in Win8

Post by KARTHICKBABU S R » Tue Dec 31, 2013 10:35 am

hi,

I am using MacroScheduler-14 in Windows 8. Macro exe is not starting automatically once we reboot the machine but when I use it on windows 7 macro process is getting started even after rebooting the machine.

Please tell me how I can do it on windows 8.

thanks in advance.

You probably just need to add a shortcut in your Startup group.

In Win8 the easiest way to find the startup folder is to run Windows Explore and then type:

shell:common startup

Add a shortcut to Macro Scheduler there.
