front end auto start?
« on: September 13, 2011, 11:29:05 pm »
I was wondering if there are any front ends that will automatically load whenever you turn on your computer? Like instead of haivng to go into windows everytime you turn the cabinet on and having to manually start up the FE

Put your fe in startup and it will start when windows loads.   If you want see the wikki re replacing windows explorer with you fe and hiding windows.

I advise you to ignore everything after - "How to completely hide windows, and SHELL directly into a Front-End", and just download and use Instant Sheller, which the previous section talks about and then gives a download link for. Instant Sheller's awesome and ever so easy to use.
