1.3. Run a program automatically when Windows starts
If you always open the same programs after starting your computer, such as a web browser or e-mail program, you
might find it convenient to have them start automatically when you start Windows. Programs or shortcuts placed in
the Startup folder will run whenever Windows starts.
● Click the Start button , click All Programs, right-click the Startup folder, and then click Open.
● Open the location that contains the item to which you want to create a shortcut.
● Right click the item and then click Create Shortcut. The new shortcut appears in the same location as the original
item.
● Drag the shortcut into the Startup folder.
The next time you start Windows, the program will run automatically.
N.B. Always Start iALinkDM-icon2 in Administrator Mode on Windows (Vista/7/8)
All shortcuts in Windows since Vista have a special property that you can set that will allow the application to run as
Administrator. This works perfectly for creating a batch file to restart a service, for instance.
To set this property, just right-click on any shortcut, and click the Advanced button on the Shortcut page to get to
the Advanced Properties dialog.
You’ll see a dialog with a checkbox for “Run as administrator”.
