Eddie doesn't auto-start on Windows boot

[strideram 11]

Hi,

 

I am using Eddie 64bit on Windows 7. Under preferences in General > Microsoft Windows Only, I have enabled `Start with Windows` and `Minimize in tray icon`.

 

When I reboot the system, Eddie doesn't start on its own. It's not visible in Task Manager nor in the system tray. If I manually start Eddie, it appears in Task Manager as well as the system tray.

 

Regards,

 

Amith

This happens to me also. A quick fix is to add a shortcut to Air client (Eddie) to the startup folder in windows. It will start when windows starts then.

Thanks for the reply/solution. My primary intention was to report a bug. Is this forum the right place or is there another?

Yes right place.

I noticed that the client had already created a Scheduled Task to auto start the client. I had to change two things to get it to work.

 

- Changed the trigger from `At System Startup` to `At Logon; Any User`.

- Changed the action from `Start notepad` to `Start <path to AirVPN.exe>`
