I've tried to find all the reports of issues and resolutions to starting HS with Win7, but I haven't seen this one yet. Sorry if it's come up before.
Win 7 Starter, 32 bit.
UAC is disabled. There are no pop-ups when starting HS.
If I double click on a shortcut, HS starts normally.
If I put a shortcut in the Startup folder, HS starts normally, but too quickly. (It needs to wait for some com port manipulation).
If I use Task Scheduler I can introduce a delay, but the programs start without a GUI ! I've tried "at startup" and "at logon". Neither gives me a GUI. And it's not just HS. Other programs behave the same way.
I also tried starting an AutoIT script that starts HS after an appropriate delay.
Using Task Scheduler, no GUI. But, if I put the AutoIT script in the Startup folder, then the programs open normally.
So, I think I have beat it into doing what I want, but I'd really like to know what is going on.
