Is it possible to get Elephant to automatically run on machine startup/user login?

Thanks,

Hello Stuart, at this moment there is no way to run in automatic way, probably with task Scheduler be possible start.
Anyway I have to make some test before confirm this.
The software do some very special things when start, other software starting at same time Elephant start can cause application malfunction.

I back soon to you to confirm about this.

Best regards.

Cool thanks. I have tried placing a shortcut for elephant in the startup folder, and running as a scheduled task but haven't had any success so far.

Would love it if this could run at startup as well. I always forget to start it before opening my DAW program.

I can confirm there is no practical way to make the software start alone without generate conflicts.
Really sorry, but is how software work.

It's ok. Just happy to have Elephant running with Cakewalk!

Ok, version 1.6 is ready, all tests done and work like charm.
The only one request not completed is this, and today I back to this issue.
I have an idea on mind, I think work ok, all what need is translate the idea to code.
I think this issue be solved, then all what need is publish the new version.
I confirm later today.

That would be great if you can get it to work. Any success?

PabloMartin

Yes Sr!
Working like charm!
Version 1.6 is 100% completed now! I mark this as solved 🙂
In the next hours start write the new user guide, need re-write 90% of the user guide and finally release this super awaited update.

NOTE: the software start as usual, ask for permission, then initialize and you have to click on the black screen in order to start.
Later I...........in near future update, I can check if can make software start in silent mode, anyway on silent mode, you always have to click YES, when Windows UAC ask for permission to run the software, but probably no need click on the black screen to start.
