Adding program to msconfig startup
Actually you'd want to run services.msc
Go to run,type:services.msc Locate the program or service,double click on it,then select "auto start" close out msc. "Mike van der Merwe" wrote: Hi !

Please provide a walkthrough of how to do that with, say, MS Word. But of course, you won't answer; you never do. "Andrew E." wrote in message ...

And how do YOU know that what the OP wants to start on Windows startup (or perhaps on account login) has anything to do with a service? So far, all we know is that the OP is using the *wrong* utility to define a startup item. We don't know if the OP wants to add a Startup group item, a Run key item, a WinLogon item, a login script, a scheduled task configured to run on login, or a service. However, considering the OP's question, it's pretty obvious that the OP hasn't a clue how to prep a program that someone else wrote to run as a service.
