How to start a program/process at system startup in c#?

[dotnetnovice]

Hi...
I want some help in registry editing Actually i am using this code

namespace ConsoleApplication2
{
    class Win_start
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            RegistryKey rk = Registry.CurrentUser.OpenSubKey("SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Run", true);
            
            rk.SetValue("a", Process.Start("c:/test.pdf"));
        }
    }
}

It works well when i run the application from visual studio but it does not works when system starts. however it set registry well.

Thanks

perhaps its not understanding how to open a pdf on start. You could use the fully qualified name instead...

            rk.SetValue("a", Process.Start(string.Format("\"{0}\" \"{1}\"",
                                           @"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe",
                                           @"c:\test.pdf")));

Note im running 64bit, so my Program Files folder with adobe reader in has an (x86) after the name.
