Starting EVERYTHING after bootup

Post by schochet »

When I boot up (WIN10), in the same annoying way that WIN 7 did, asks if I want EVERYTHING to make changes to my system (i.e., do I want it to run). I always answer yes, but nothing happens, forcing me to open the program manually. Obviously, I included EVERYTHING in my Startup back in WIN 7 (the equivalent of which I cannot find in my WIN 10 start menu); it didn't when then either. I checked "Start Everything on System Startup" in the Options menu. Is this something I just have to "live with"? If so, no problem, but....

The UAC prompt will be shown if Everything is launched as an administrator.

Please try running Everything as a standard user:
  • In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the General tab on the left.
  • Check Everything service.
  • Uncheck Run as administrator.
  • Click OK.
  • Exit Everything (right click the Everything tray icon and click Exit).
  • Restart Everything.
Please make sure Everything is running as a standard user:
  • Right click your Everything.exe or a shortcut to Everything
  • Click Properties.
  • Click the Compatibility tab.
  • Uncheck Run this program as an administrator.
  • Click OK.

Many, many thanks. Like the proverbial charm -- better yet, more in the category of miraculous!

It now opens immediately and VERY quickly.
