    Auto Start on reboot

    My Homeseer “server”is on a Windows 10 PC (the sole purpose of that PC is to run Homeseer and nothing else)
    I just upgraded from Homeseer3 to Homeseer4 Pro using Homeseers’ documentation “Installing and Setting up HS4 Preferred Method”
    In addition to the Windows 10 Homeseer Server I have 3 other PC’s on the same network I access all PC’s, including Homeseer, via RDP, except, when I did the upgrade I move cables around and temporarily attached directly to the Windows 10 PC running Homeseer. So with the short background done…

    Can I somehow disable Homeseer4 requirement for a keying in a password or somehow configure HS4 to automatically log in on startup?? The object of this exercise to is have Homeseer come back online after an extended power outage.

    This was never an issue with Homeseer3 I did not need a password to log into it, or if I did I found a way around it and now can’t remember what I did.

    I could disable User Account Control but I’m nearly positive that will break RDP to the Homeseer Server and running without RDP on this network is not really an option. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

    The easiest way now is to run HS4 as a service.

    Right-click on the HomeSeer tray icon and select install service.

      If you don't want to run HS as a service, you can follow the guide here to set a task for starting HS4.

        Thank you to both jon00 and Steveo369, I appreciate you taking time out to answer. I apologize for the tardy reply, I had to leave town unexpectedly and just got back yesterday.
