Win7 start up question

[Polish]

Howsit,

Evey morning once logged in i start up approx 10 different programs which i need for my daily function.

I do it one by one, starting with outlook, then an in-house program, then about five web based applications, another in-house application, etc.

I want to know if there is a way to group this so that by a click of one button each one starts opening in a specific order, so that i don't have to do it one by one individually.

Thank you

P

Windows Button > All Programs > Right Click Startup Folder > Open > drag and drop icons / bookmarks / shortcuts into folder. Reboot. Works for me.

Not sure if order will work though. I would try re-naming the shortcuts 1 to 10 in the start up folder and see if that works.

I use something called WinPatrol from BillP Studios - works very well and monitors anything added to the startup - you can also set what starts first, in which order, and the time it starts.

The freeware vesion is here

This also works quite well: http://www.r2.com.au/software.php?page=2&show=startdelay

There is no mention of Windows 7 on the compatiblity list but give it a bash if you don't like the other app, although it does sound better.

Add to startup folder as suggested by Waaib and you can set your web based applications as your homepage, so they open when opening your browser, tools - internet options - general tab - homepage, separate addresses using the " | " or add each addy in different lines.

I use startup delay at work. You can set the time for each application to startup.
