Resume batch script after computer restart

Question

I have a bunch of old machines running Windows 2000 Pro and IE 5.0 which I want to upgrade to IE 6 with Silverlight. I downloaded the IE6 and Silverlight installers from Mi

Answer 1

You could put the second command in a exclusive batch file, and add an entry to regedit to execute this batch file automatically upon Windows' start, making silverlight be executed after the computer restarts.

Have you heard of msconfig? On some systems the regedit PATH you are looking for is:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

But you may want to check that. If you want to make a batch file to write that key on the registry, you probably should take a look at this tutorial.
