So now your product declaration will look like this In the Feature tag under product add the reference to your new component In the fragment that has your product components add this declaration


When the installer launches, it will copy the short cut to the file specified in the directory that you referenced. In the Fragment that declares the directory structure required for your installation, you will add the directory reference to the Start Up folder under windows.Īfter, you must create the component that will instruct it to take a file and create a ShortCut in the directory that you pass as reference (Start Up Folder). I haven't had the time to test the structure, in my Wix Directory project at home, but from the top of my head the directory structure should look something like this īy default, the Fragment containing the Directory structure is right after the product element. I used different approach : How to run a C# application at Windows startup? I still don't know how to resolve this with wix. Whole Product.wxs for Hello World project example would be the best. ico to wix project and how ? I need, step by step explanation to understand this.

Where to add this tags? Should I create shortcut, or wix will do that for me ? Do I have to include shortcut to wix, and how? Do I have to include. Thank for help, but not good enought for me. How to making an aplication start on Windows startup, with WIX Toolset ? I have simple "Hello world" windows forms application (created in VS-2013).
