Hide Form On Startup If App Occurred Because Of Windows Startup?

Jun 20, 2010

I can hide my startup form (or make it appear hidden) on startup. I can start my app on windows startup--through registry values--if the user checks a checkbox.

But if the app starts up on windows startup, I want the form to be hidden, so the program can just keep working without bothering anyone. If it starts up because the user started it, I want the form to be showing, because the user probably wants to change some settings or something.

VS 2010 - Application To Run On Windows Startup

Apr 2, 2012

I developed an application in Visual Basic 2010 Express which has two features:

1) It is portable and uses some .dlls which must be in the same folder
2) Requires Administrator in order to run

I want my application to run on windows startup. So i created the registry string value and made some tests that gave me the following results:

1) Windows XP -> Runs on startup without any errors
2) Windows 7 Starter -> It simply ignores my application
3) Windows 7 Premium -> The run confirmation box from unknown publisher appeared and when i selected to run, AVG gave a virus warning
4) Windows 8 Consumer Preview -> It simply ignores my application

VS 2008 : Getting Startup Folder (Vista/7)?

May 5, 2011

I was having trouble before editing the registry on a WPF application I'm working on, in order to get autostart to work, so I ended up creating a shortcut in the startup folder to automatically start the application. My problem is, that this not working on Windows 7 (and Im guessing Vista too). Here's my code. Does Environment.SpecialFolder.Startup not work on Windows 7?

Dim PathToStartupFolder As String = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Startup)
If File.Exists(PathToStartupFolder & "Application.Exe.LNK") = False Then
Dim ShellObject As New IWshRuntimeLibrary.WshShell

VS 2010 Splash Screen Loads On Startup And A Lot Of Child Forms That Load When Opening?

May 31, 2011

I have an MDI parent screen that loads on startup and a lot of child forms that load when opening. So as the child forms load there's a lot of flashing and it looks really ugly. Once they're loaded all I have to do is use a bring to front, maximized command and it works smoother than closing a form and opening a new one every time a different form is selected. I've tried creating a splash screen, minimizing the forms on load, etc and everything still works in order so first the splash screen then the forms load.

How would you set it up so a splash screen stays on top of all other forms for like 5 seconds while the forms load in the background without seeing them load? Right now the screen shows then when it's done it moves on to step 2 which is loading the child forms. If no splash screen, how do I make it load so you don't see all the child forms opening at once?

Programmatically Changing The Culture For A Multi Form Application On Startup?

Feb 18, 2009

Is there some way of programtically changing the culture for a multi form application on startup so that the application will interpret date formats correctly. For example if the aplication runs on a machine with a en-US culture it would be able to take a date from a database in the MM/dd/yyyy format and convert it to a date object and when the same application runs on a en-GB machine it can take that same MM/dd/yyyy date and convert it into a date object without getting a date format exception.
