Doesn't start with Windows

Open gbakeman opened this issue 3 years ago • 5 comments

On Windows 10 21H2, it looks like this app doesn't start after booting the computer and logging in. I have to manually launch it.

The option to start with Windows is checked inside the app, and Task Manager shows that this app is enabled for startup.

Version 1.3.0

I'm having the same issue on Windows 10 21H1. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help troubleshoot.

FYI, it also doesn't automatically update the wallpaper even though I have it set to do so hourly. I don't know if this is related or should be a new issue.

I was having the same issue (wallpapers not changing), I think you should go ahead and make that issue.

It's a bug: in Windows the path should be like "C:\Users[user_name]\AppData\Local\Programs\unsplash-wallpapers\Unsplash Wallpapers.exe" instead of "/Applications/Unsplash Wallpapers.app"

(open RegEdit and search 'HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run')

Good catch! The same string also appears here: https://github.com/soroushchehresa/unsplash-wallpapers/blob/61f0c3ae7d287643f4da5d335e6973b4e19fd7de/app/main.dev.js#L135
