Windows 8 startup not working

Post by spangers »

Hi all,

I am having trouble with XPadder auto start on Windows 8.

Its in my program files folder and no matter what I do it wont auto start.

I have tried a Task Scheduler task and tried compatibility/admin modes and nothing works :(

Sometimes the exe will be running in task manager on startup but no task bar icon/notification area and no functionality.

Does anyone have fix for this?

Cheers :)

Do you want to say that Xpadder starting at all in the program files directory, or is only the autostart with Windows not working?
Activating "Run as admin" in the file properties, breaks the autostart for some reason. The only way to start a program automatically with Windows and with admin privileges is the Task Scheduler.
