YoWindows won´t start at PC start-up

Post by Synchro »

I don´t know why but YoWindow app does not run at Windows start-up anymore. I opened the app, checked Options --> Run with Windows --> Apply-->OK, but it doesn´t save the settings. I repeated this many times. Can this issue be fixed somehow? I hate to run it manually every time I start my PC.

Hi,

I have no Idea.
What Windows version are you using?
What YoWindow version are you using?

Hi Fred! Thanks for your reply. I use Windows 10 Home edition and YoWindow 4 Build 67 Unlimited edition. I never had problems with it, but after that fix came out because of the problem with Flash, the program simply won't start anymore when I turn on the PC in the morning. Really strange I must say. :unknown:

Could you try to uninstall and then re-install YoWindow, preferably version 4.0.70?
Just to be sure: Do you have administrator rights?

I have registered version and I am not sure I wanna uninstall it. And I believe I have the latest version of YoWindow installed anyway. About administration rights I am not sure if I know what you mean. I simply ran the installation update when it appeared on the screen when I opened YoWindow app. I will try next time to close the app when the update comes and rather download the update file and run it as administrator. Maybe it will help. But for now I would rather leave it like it is. Hopefully it will be fixed next time when new update comes.

Open your task manager...

Look for the start-up tab...

Check that YoWindow is in the list AND enabled...

Yes, it is. It always has been. But I checked again now and it still is. Status: Enabled, Startup Impact: Not measured

Ok...uncheck it/disable it without removing it...

If prompted accept the warning and close task manager...

Reboot your pc...Enable it again and close taskmanager...

Reboot again and see what gives...

Unfortunately, the app simply doesn´t start with Windows. I can do whatever I want , but it just wont go. But there is one thing I noticed. After I installed the update yesterday, the option Run with Windows (minimized to tray) was checked, but after I restarted the PC and when I saw the app won´t start, and when I opened it manually I noticed that the option Run with Windows (minimized to tray) was unchecked, even though I didn't uncheck it. So I guess there is nothing to be done at the moment. :(
