Is there a way to have Yawcam run as soon as the PC is turned on?

Create a shortcut in the folder "C:\Documents and Settings\[my_logon]\Menu Start\Programma's\Startup".
Just make a shortcut to yawcam's start file and place in the Windows startup folder.
Folder : "C:\Documents and Settings\[my_logon]\Menu Start\Programma's\Startup"
Yawcam will then start when Windows starts.

There is also the option to run Yawcam as service with the latest beta version. Yawcam will then start even before you logon. Get the latest beta version here:

And what if I want to start it up for any user?
Do I then make a shortcut in C:\Documents and Settings\All users\Menu Start\Programs\Startup
