How Do I Have a Program Start Automatically With Windows 2000 Pro?

Windows Professional 2000 is an older operating system still used on some networks. Windows 2000 has a similar architecture to newer Windows operating systems, such as the ability to place programs in the start section of the registry. The registry has a section called "Run," where programs such as antivirus other personalized software you want to start are entered. These programs are started each time you boot Windows.

Instructions

  1. Step 1

Click the Windows "Start" button and select "Run." Enter "regedit" into the text box displayed and press the "Ok" button.

  1. Step 2

Navigate to the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run" registry directory.

  1. Step 3

Right-click the window and select "New." Select "Value" and a new window opens. In the data type drop-down box, select "REG_SZ."

  1. Step 4

Enter the executable for the program you want to start. Enter the full path to the executable, or the registry will return an error. Click the "OK" button to save your settings.

  1. Step 5

Reboot the machine. The next time you reboot, the Windows operating system automatically runs the software after you log in to the machine
