Thanks for pointing me to the batch file.
We have a lot of Wonderware around here and in the past they provided a program called Startit to sequence the startup of programs.
Just putting links in the startup folder doesn’t guarantee their order of execution.
Finally, I started using a batch file that would ping 127.0.0.1 once a second for x numbers of times. There was not a sleep command that could be used to generate the delay.
This way you could be sure programs started and had sufficient time to stabilze before starting the next one.
Question, if FBWF is enabled, do you lose any log files or data files on reboot? Place them in an unprotected partition?
Thanks
Quick and dirty, but it works, consistently.
