Question:

When a StartUp Script through Computer Configuration is
applied to a computer, will the machine not continue the
startup process until the STARTUP SCRIPT is complete?
If so, how can I modify this particular Computer
Configuration Startup Script to have the computer(s)
continue through the startup process while it continues to
execute the Computer Configuration Startup Script in the
background? (Is this even possible?)

Reason For Request:
I created a Computer Configuration Startup Script that has
a AUTOLOGON and couple of sleep commands and needs the
computer to continue the STARTUP Process while it's still
executing the Computer Configuration Startup Script in the
background. Funny thing is that the script was working
fine about 1 year ago. Meaning, the computer(s) the
Computer Configuration Startup Script was being applied to
would continue the STARTUP Process while it was still
executing the STARTUP Script in the background.

All help is much appreciated.
