Autostart SpeedFan WINDOWS 8.1

[Valter Medeiros]

Hi,
Since I want to control my fan speed and see my temps i installed SpeedFan.
BUT I can't put it to start auto with windows 8.1. I tried in someguides to put speedfan.exe in a folder of windows, etc, but when I startup my PC nothing goes on. :/
I think the problem is because the program needs to run as Administrator.

Its there a way of making this run proply? Sry about my english.
Hug!

are you not the administrator?

 

[Valter Medeiros]

I am, but when I run the program, pop out a window and I need to press YES to give permissions.

Right click the exe, hit properties, click RUN AS ADMIN

then add shortcut of exe to Stratup folder.

I have tried this, and it never starts up.

I did this months ago, and double checked to make sure I have the correct settings...no luck.

Can I please bump this thread. I am having the same problem.

I have added speedfan via startup program group, registery, and task scheduler and it still doesn't load on startup.
