HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run registry keyHKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run registry key Then you can launch your batch in an invisible mode:
wscript.exe "C:\yourpath\invis.vbs" "your_file.bat"In invis.vbs put...
CreateObject("Wscript.Shell").Run """" & WScript.Arguments(0) & """", 0, False

- or start it as a Scheduled task setting to run on logon.
