Re: Launch iexplore at startup ...



Marco:

Using the init key to start an app should only be done with apps written to
start that early in the boot process. This is for at least two reasons:

1. The app must call SignalStarted()
2. The app may have dependencies that prevent it from starting that early,
for which it does not properly handle waiting. This is most commonly
because APIs and drivers are not yet ready to support the app.

You will do much better to use the startup folder. If you don't run the
explorer shell, you may need to support the startup folder with an app that
you supply, which does 1 and 2 above when run using the init key.
