Hi does anyone know how to set Tight vnc server to boot up in the taskbar automatically on windows startup
im using vista basic 32bit
Thanks
 
drop the tight vnc and download real vnc

that is a better program you will be able to install it and then it will automatically start when the pc starts up
 
dont want to pay for real vnc

Just wanted to know if there is a way to make programs run on startup in the taskbar

Thanks
 
u wont have to pay

real vnc is freeware but only with basic functions still good enough though


have u got tight vnc installed?
do u have to manually start it up?

There's a free version of Real VNC that might meet your needs:

http://www.realvnc.com/products/free/4.1/index.html

Otherwise, the only way I know to load an application on startup is to place it in the Programs > Startup folder on the start menu... or run it as a service if it can do that.
 
I use TightVNC as well. It starts up everytime Windows starts because at the beginning the installation asks if you want to install it as a service. That would set it up for automatic boot up. In your case there's still a way. Simply go into your Start Menu, find the TightVNC shortcut that's labelled "Start TightVNC Service"; should be in 'Programs' > 'TightVNC' > 'TightVNC Server (ServiceMode)' and copy it into your Startup Folder; in 'Programs' > 'Startup'.

Anything in the Startup Folder is launched every bootup
 
Start TightVNC autimatically during Windows bottup

Another way is to first check within the Services that run automatically.


-Click the Windows Start button, click 'Run', type 'services.msc'.

-Scroll down and double-click on 'TightVNC Server' and set the 'Startup type:' as "Automatic".

That should get TightVNC to startup automatically during Windows bootup.
