M Mark L. Ferguson Oct 28, 2007 #2 You intentionally arrange the start order. Run a bat or script file on start up to run the apps in the order you prefer. --my.bat- cut here-- start c:/myfolder/myfile.exe start c:/myfolder2/myfile2.exe --end file cut here--

R Ramesh, MS-MVP Oct 28, 2007 #3 Jim, AFAIK, Windows XP does not run defrag at startup. Perhaps you meant the "Chkdsk" process when runs after a dirty shutdown. -- Regards, Ramesh Srinivasan, Microsoft MVP [Windows Shell/User] Windows® Troubleshooting http://www.winhelponline.com Don't want to use windows built in defrag program. how do I keep windows xp from automatically arranging any files on startup ???????
