"Start on boot" doesn't work

Task won't start on boot. Is anybody still developing this thing? The last release was three years ago.

I did try it. Not only does it not work, but it glitches out the UI when you open it, and I have to force stop the daemon in Task Manager.

Actually, there is already a task that the application itself creates to start on boot in the Task Scheduler. It is called "LittleBigMouse_COMPUTER_NAME_username".

The only solution I've found to work is one I created.

Create a batch file with the following:

start "C:\Program Files\LittleBigMouse\LittleBigMouse_Daemon.exe" "C:\Program Files\LittleBigMouse\LittleBigMouse_Daemon.exe" --start (what's in the first set of parentheses actually doesn't matter)

Set that to start at login with Task Scheduler (with a 30-second delay).
