Coding 4 Fun - Startup Optimizer

Tuesday, March 18, 2008 11:59 PM

After a long delay, I've published another Coding 4 Fun article.  This one is a good start toward optimizing Windows startup.  It scans your Startup folder and will start the items at boot-time instead of Windows.  The advantage is that it can insert a delay between each application, or even wait for an idle CPU before launching one.  It uses user controls, a background worker, threading, and a number of other cool features.  This will be my last XP/VS2005 article.  Everyone should be on Visual Studio 2008 now!  As for Vista, well I'll try to make things work in both OS's unless it's a very Vista-specific feature that I'm exploiting.  Enjoy!
