I need to create an installation file for Windows in such a way that the setup:
- Registers the .exe at startup so it launches everytime machine is booted
- Runs the .exe and opens a webpage upon completing installation .
Could anyone please give me some tips on how I could do this?
One option is to look into using WiX to create the installer.
For requirement #1, you could put a shortcut into the startup folder, as discussed here.
For requirement #2, you can execute a ShellExecute CustomAction to open the URL, and I believe, run the application.
