_Startup() - Create Startup entries in the Startup Folder or Registry.

Great. I will probably refactor the code tonight, since it has seen the light of day again.

I get an error (41) : ==> Unknown function name.:

However when I use your examples everything works well.

Does this UDF support executables which require admin permissions to run?  I myself encountered, and have since assisted those who have been unable to get programs which require admin credentials to run (as in user is prompted by UAC when the #requireAdmin flag is set, not when the executable is called to run as Administrator using RunAs and secondary logon) to run at startup due to the inability for applications which are added to startup folder/registry Run or RunOnce to start with elevated permissions.  Does this UDF support adding tasks to task scheduler in order to accomplish this, or does the autoit function have to specifically run the application as administrator with secondary logon?

Hi everybody! First time ever here and although this topic has so many years inactive, I signed in just to thank you. I began creating a small utility for closing CHM help programs pressing [Esc] key and ended up adding one feature after another, and obviously running at startup (by Registry) was one of them. Thank you very much guinness!

PS: I had a odd situation when I compiled my script including your UDF. My AV delete it at once and when I uploaded it to VirusTotal, almost 20 antivirus engines flagged my exe as malicious. But when I put your code directly in my script and all lines for Startup folder tasks were removed, everything went OK. Only one engine flagged as suspicious. It seems that a trojan called Nymeria used this kind of code and AVs mark all similar code as the same.

Best regards!
