l
If the Installed flag is set, auto-launch looks for the FileCheck file. If it is present, the CAB file is installed, and that
registry entry is complete. If the FileCheck file is not present, memory has been lost, and the utility calls WCELOAD to
reinstall the CAB file.
l
Then, the whole process repeats for the next entry in the registry, until all registry entries are analyzed.
l
To force execution every time (for example, for AUTOEXEC.BAT), use a FileCheck of “dummy”, which will never be
found, forcing the item to execute.
l
For persist keys specifying .EXE or .BAT files, the executing process is started, and then Launch will continue, leaving
the loading process to run independently. For other persist keys (including .CAB files), Launch will wait for the loading
process to complete before continuing. This is important, for example, to ensure that a .CAB file is installed before the
.EXE files from the .CAB file are run.
l
Note that the auto-launch process can also launch batch files (*.BAT), executable files (*.EXE), registry setting files
(*.REG), or sound files (*.WAV). The mechanism is the same as listed above, but the appropriate CE application is
called, depending on file type.
Note: Registry entries may vary depending on software revision level and options ordered with the Thor
VM1.
