如何在登录Windows XP之前运行我的程序？

Question

Hai, I have a simple smile face program in c# which stored login time in d:\\time.txt file.But when I add the program at"gpedit.msc" then Computer Configuration->Windows Settings->Scripts(Start up/Shutdown)->stratup->DOUBLE CLICK then Add the "my.exe", for every single login. I found that Its worked only first time when i boot the system.but If I restart the machine after suppose 15-20 mins, the time not change in file and even the smile face also not comes more then one time login.

anyone can help me to run this program every time when i login in PC.

Answer 1

What you put under Startup/Shutdown runs at startup/shutdown, not logon/logoff.

When you want to run them at login, you need to put them under Logon/Logoff.

You'll find that under User Configuration -> Windows Settings.

Answer 2

As i am in hurry, i can not add code atm.
Another approach would be creating your programm as a service (which is simply done by usind the corresponding project template within visual studio). This service would listen to a windows message that is fired whenever a user is logged on.

A service delivers also some further advantaged you might want to use ;)
