Hi !

The First Way and The Short Way is find Windows Directory Location and Put One Copy Of Your Software In There !

I Hope You Can Find WinDirectory Location With API !

And otherwise, place a shortcut to your program in the registry, in this key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

How can i register path of my application after run setup file in windows registry so my application start when win boot .

Use the Registry API.
You just put the 'PATH' of the program in the place where, Michael_Kamen had earlier pointed out..
Don't tweak Batch files and all .Just use API

Go and download a API GUIDE from www.allapi.net
There u could find how a Value could be put in the registry...
Try it..Other wise i will send u the code...

you could also add a key here. works same as stated above. just make sure to have if app.previnstance in your code to make sure you arent running more than one version of the program..

here is the key

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

use registry api's and program to store

key - "application name"
and
value - "the path of the application"

in this registry key

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
