How to startup apps added in Azure VM

Question

I have a simple console application runs in Azure VM. What I did is creating a Local Group Policy for this app but it works in the background process.

Is it possible to run the app on windows startup normally. Not in the background??

Answer 1

Have you tried using the Task Scheduler to create a new task?

I ran the Task Scheduler on my local machine to run a Console Application that I just created. When it got triggered, the console app ran in the foreground by default.

See 2 screenshots below. It should work the same on a VM, but let me know if you have any issues with it, and I'll troubleshoot further.
