I have a program loading in startup, but it is not loading?


Recommended Posts

I have a program called BlueIris for monitoring my security cameras, and I have added it to the startup folder (shell:startup) and the only issue is that this program requires that it  run as admin, and I have changed the shortcut to run as admin, but it does not load now (it loaded prior to changing admin setting), but according to the taskmanager the program is running, but it is obviously not loaded and does not load until I execute it via the shortcut I have on the desktop. Is there any reason that this should be an issue, and any idea on how to fix it?

Make a scheduled task to do what you want. Setting a startup program to run as administrator in compatibility settings will not allow it to happen unattended, it would still need user interaction.

OK, I created a task to load on startup, but it did not load. The task was created and under actions it is start a program, which I have specified the path to, and under General, it is set to run only when user is logged in and tun with highest privileges.

What (if anything) is wrong with this?

I manually ran the task, and the software came up indicating that it required admin access, despite the fact that I told the task to run it that way.

Hi

 

It was me who mentioned BlueIris to you so I feel a sense of responsibility here.

 

Are you aware that BlueIris does not need the app to run at startup; it can run as a service, the app is only there to administer this service?  Hence the App wants to be run as Administrator, but that's reasonable.

Have you done any of the mobile stuff, push notifications to its mobile app?

No, the mobile app is $9.99, and reading the reviews it sounds like it's really slow and does not work very well. As far as anything else mobile, I have not tried to setup notifications, I have 2 apps that allow me to access my camera's remotely.

    • I suspect that this was also due to a nice juicy bribe from the Chinese. They know how to pay to play...
    • You can get RAID if it is connected to a TerraMaster NAS (TOS 6). In that case this device is interesting if you want to expand your existing TerraMaster NAS setup. For example you could get a cheap 2- or 4-bay HDD model (with at least USB 3.2 10Gbps port), and then add this for a low power storage expansion.
    • Microsoft announces multi-year partnership with AMD for future of Xbox consoles and hardware by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The Xbox Games Showcase was earlier this month with its own hardware announcement, but Microsoft had kept a major partnership under wraps for now. Today, it revealed that it has established a "strategic multi-year partnership with AMD" to develop its next-generation Xbox consoles and other devices. In a video uploaded to the Xbox social channels, Xbox president Sarah Bond announced the partnership with AMD. Remember that Microsoft's Xbox Series X|S consoles and the previous Xbox One lineup already tout AMD silicon inside, so the continued partnership isn't a big surprise. "Together with AMD we're advancing the state of art in gaming silicon to deliver the next generation of graphics innovation to unlock a deeper level of visual quality and immersive gameplay and player experiences enhanced with the power of AI, all while maintaining compatibility with your existing library of Xbox games," said Bond in the video promoting the partnership. The two Xbox Ally Windows gaming handhelds that were announced earlier this month also come with AMD internals, offering handheld gaming experiences with a unique, lightweight version of bloat-free Windows 11. What was also interesting were the few hints that were dropped today regarding the focus of the Xbox brand going forward. "This is all about building you a gaming platform that's always with you, so you can play the games you want across devices anywhere you want, delivering you an Xbox experience not locked to a single store or tied to one device," added Bond. It was also confirmed that the next generation of Xbox devices will continue to offer backward compatibility, letting players keep their existing libraries when moving forward. Finishing off the video, Bond confirmed that the Xbox team is now working on Windows to make it the "number one platform for gaming," perhaps alluding to moving away from being focused on home consoles.
    • Kudos to the happy talented people who created that happy trailer. PS It's gorgeous!
    • Maybe the site will get out of dabbing into Identity Politics.
