server start

Is there a way to start server automatically with windows.

I had to uncheck system service at install in order to see mapped drives.

To add a autorun feature in windows, first click "Start" and then click "Run"
Type "regedit" and click OK. The Registry Editor window will open.
In the left pane, navigate to:
"HKEY_CURRENT_USER -> Software -> Microsoft -> Windows -> CurrentVersion -> Run"
Then add a new string value "C:\Program Files\Wing FTP Server\WFTPServer.exe"

You just add this string value on the right pane of Regedit Editor, then Wing FTP Server will startup automaticlly

i had that string already. The problem was not that it did not start the problem was that it was in the right lower system tray but it had a red x and said server stopped. I fixed hat by just putting the wftptray shortcut into the start menu.


Thank you for your patience and perseverance!
