AutoRun

Purpose

AutoRun is a utility designed to automate the startup and shutdown of groups of applications through customizable profiles.

Instead of manually launching the same programs every day, you can create one or more profiles containing your preferred applications, startup parameters, and optional delays between launches. With a single click, AutoRun can start an entire work environment in the correct order, skipping programs that are already running or forcing additional instances when required.

The utility is particularly useful for amateur radio stations, office workstations, development environments, multimedia systems, or any scenario where multiple applications must be started together on a regular basis.

Usage

Install the program using the supplied installer and launch AutoRun . Create one or more profiles and populate them with the applications you want to manage, optionally defining command-line parameters, startup delays, and force-start options. Once configured, a single click allows the entire set of applications to be launched automatically in the desired sequence. Profiles can also generate dedicated desktop shortcuts that start silently, load the selected profile, launch all configured programs, and then automatically close the utility. An uninstaller is included and can be used at any time to completely remove the software from your system.
