make a system file

[phinix]

i have made my own .exe files that i want to run as SYSTEM files.

well you see every time we open the task manager/prosessor

a list apears. that list shows all the applications/prgrammes running at that movement. many of which are "userfiles" and many of which are SYSTEM files that runs atomaticaly when the computer starts.

the thing is that i have made an .exe file which i want to run as SYSTEM file. how do i do that?

You mean you want the program to run at startup?

you could pop it in your startup folder or edit the registry

Please make sure you backup your registry before you make any changes, just to be on the safe side.

You can use the "attrib +S filename" command. That should work for you.

I think what the poster really wants to know is how to start a process as 'system' user, as opposed to 'user' user.

Not sure about this, but I think that you can only start a process under the 'system' user when starting it as a service. I have never seen any "normal" process running under the 'system' user.

What I can't figure out is why anyone would want an exe file that they made to run as a system file....

Yeah why would you want that? If anyone could run anything as the local system account that would be bad, very bad. However most of the time you can run schedular from the command prompt and start a program in the system account. Their is also a 3rd party app that will let you do this locally and remotely as well, its at sysinternals.com.
