You may use the following registry fragment to make the 'Messenger' service automatic.

Quote:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\Messenger]
"Start"=dword:00000002

Create a batch file and use the command regedit.exe /s Example.reg to merge the it silently to the registry.

thank you sir.
Keep helping.

However,
I think it would be [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE...........\Services\Messenger]
rather than [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE...........\Servic es\Messenger]
am i right?

Yeah, right. Some parsing error.

you can do the same via the reg add command too.

Code:

reg add HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Messenger /v Start /t REG_DWORD /d 02  /f
