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.

    • GeForce NOW adds support for 25 games in June, including Rematch and Dune: Awakening by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe A new month is here, and Nvidia is starting it off with a big GeForce NOW announcement as usual. The latest reveal has support for 25 games that are incoming in June alone, with some highlights including Rematch, The Alters, FBC: Firebreak, Dune: Awakening, and even the Borderlands trilogy from Gearbox and 2K. Just this week alone, Nvidia is adding support for the following ten games for GeForce NOW subscribers: Symphonia (New release on Xbox, available on PC Game Pass, June 3) Pro Cycling Manager 25 (New release on Steam, June 5) Tour de France 2025 (New release on Steam, June 5) Dune: Awakening – Advanced Access (New release on Steam, June 5) 7 Days to Die (Xbox) Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (Epic Games Store) Cubic Odyssey (Steam) Drive Beyond Horizons (Steam) Police Simulator: Patrol Officers (Xbox, available on PC Game Pass) Sea of Thieves (Battle.net) Nvidia also has plans to add a bunch more games in the rest of June, which is when most of the biggest new releases are coming: Dune: Awakening (New release on Steam, June 10) MindsEye (New release on Steam, June 10) The Alters (New release on Steam and Xbox, available on PC Game Pass, June 13) Architect Life: A House Design Simulator (New release on Steam, June 19) Crime Simulator (New release on Steam, June 17) FBC: Firebreak (New release on Steam and Xbox, available on PC Game Pass, June 17) Lost in Random: The Eternal Die (New release on Steam and Xbox, available on PC Game Pass, June 17) Broken Arrow (New release on Steam, June 19) REMATCH (New release on Steam and Xbox, available on PC Game Pass, June 19) DREADZONE (New release on Steam, June 26) System Shock 2: 25th Anniversary Remaster (New release on Steam, June 26) Borderlands Game of the Year Enhanced (Steam) Borderlands 2 (Steam and Epic Games Store) Borderlands 3 (Steam and Epic Games Store) Easy Red 2 (Steam) The company has a tendency to add many more games to its cloud gaming service outside of these early announcements, so check back as weeks go by to see what's new. Steam Deck owners recently received a better way of using GeForce NOW too, all thanks to a dedicated app. As summer continues, don't forget that the GeForce NOW 40% off sale is still active too, with Nvidia cutting the price of the Performance membership plan until July. As always, keep in mind that unlike subscription services like Game Pass, a copy of a game must be owned by the GeForce NOW member (or at least have a license via PC Game Pass) to start playing via Nvidia's cloud servers.
    • Thought I'd quote myself as reference to what was happening yesterday. I wasn't getting the pop up then in Firefox, but I did just now using it.
    • With DARPA the military can do their own research and then the tech can enter the public domain and benefit the people. If we use public money to buy privatized tech then we don't get that benefit and even worse we will probably pay higher prices in the end. Unfortunately we are ditching NASA for private tech. If you look at all of the technologies developed by NASA that benefit us, you can see why going private can be a huge loss and jack up prices for consumers when private patents are involved. This could have a detrimental effect on innovation by monopolizing certain advancements and reduce access to advancements for the average person, even though our tax dollars would be funding these advancements.
    • Is Microsoft saying that here? Because I don't see it anywhere. It's just a dumb article talking about some new screen, that's all.
