Re: Rerun StartUp FolderBased on a user request in the Coding Snacks Section: ReRun - Run the startup programs not already running You'll find the downloads and more info at 1 Hour Software by Skrommel. It runs the registry and start menu programs of both the current user and the common user. It's not perfecet - the startup commands must contain an extension, and I can't detect autostarted documents and folders. |

Appget - user-run software update programResearching for automatic update programs, I found Appget (direct download) (site is in dutch, but program is in english -- so use the babelfish translation to read more). It scans the system for installed program then submits this list and compares it to the lists other users have submitted. If other people are running a newer version then it will notify you. It's possible to ignore items like windows updates, report version comparison problems (right click), submit urls for up-to-date versions, and search the app using google. The application works really well but only programs that are detected through the add/remove programs list are detected. Also it depends on enough people using it so updates are found. Apart from these minor niggles, it's worth a look! The author is very reponsive and friendly, I have discussed features in the past and sent him a link to this topic. |
