Example: you want the users to have Notepad by default as soon they logon to their session.

Windows has a mechanism for executing a program, a script, when a user logs on.

We call it a logon script.

To create a script, create a text file as logon.txt, write the script in it and save, then rename the file as logon.bat.

The script should be dropped in the following location:

C: \ Users \ <user_profile_name> \ AppData \ Roaming \ Microsoft \ Windows \ Start Menu \ Programs \ Startup

Here is a sample script, which allows you to launch NotePad at logon, in addition to the apps assigned in TSplus.

@ECHO OFF

TITLE My Launcher

ECHO ==========================

ECHO START NOTEPAD

ECHO ============================

TIMEOUT /T 2 /NOBREAK
