Fix 2 :

 

Normally you won't need this,

 

but in the event you have the problem that the server won't start,

 

even when the receiver is plugged in from before you start your pc,

follow this :

 

First you will need the ".cmd" file and shortcut from Fix 1

See how to make it here : https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/fix-for-when-ir-server-suite-service-doesnt-start-with-windows-in-here.114611/page-4#post-944990

 

Step 1 : Make a folder, e.g. D:\IR Server Startup

 

Step 2 :Copy the "ir.cmd" and the "IR Server Service.lnk" (shortcut) to the created folder in step 1

 

Step 3 : Open Notepad

 

Step 4 : copy and paste the following in Notepad : start "" "d:\IR SERVER - STARTUP\IR Server Service.lnk"

 

Step 5 : Save it as  IRSS-Serv.bat

 

Step 6 : Copy the IR Server.bat to the startup folder ( c:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\ )

 

You can test the IR Server.bat if you like,

it should give you a UAC window and then you click "yes",

the command promp comes up, restarts your server

and closes automatically.

 

Now for the real test,

restart your pc.

 

When starting windows, the command prompt comes up,

however, you wont see a UAC window coming up.

Don't panic, if you look at your task bar below, you will see something orange blinking.

That's the UAC, just click it and the window comes up.

 

Voila, that's it.

 

For those who are not so good with a computer,

I've uploaded the 3 files needed in a rar file.

 

Follow Steps 1, 2 and 6 for where to copy the files from the rar.

Don't rename the files from the rar !!!!!!!!!!

 

But still I encourage you to read how the files are made,

it could come handy in the future for other things to start with windows,

it's really not that hard to make, just follow the step by step guide.
