You may need to be clear about whether you mean boot time or interactive user logon time. The contents of the registry's Run-type keys don't run at boot time - they run at log on time. If you literally want boot time you may be able to do it with a Task Scheduler entry, but arguably the usual way to run a program at boot time is to make it a service, and obviously don't show UI. --------------- Phil Wilson
