 |
|
I have, under some conditions, to reset and restart Windows so that my
program autoruns.
I'm thinking to use ExitExecRestart() and related functions but they are not
known by C++Builder 6 at compiling time (missing an include file? which?)
Thanks for help

ExitExecRestart() is not a Win32 API function. It is a script function for
Microsoft's Installer technology.
What you are looking for is ExitWindows/Ex() instead.

Many thanks for info. |
But how and where I can register programmatically pathapplication_name
before shut-down so that it runs at Windows restart?
Thanks again

There are many places:
1) The "Startup" group in the Start Menu
2) The "Run" and "RunOnce" subkeys of the
"SoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersion" key of the Register's
HKEY_CURRENT_USER and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE areas.
It really depends on what your actual needs are, and what kind of systems
you are targetting.
