O.P. RUNAS problem
Hi Folks,

Someone out there who knows how to get MsgPlus to start with Messenger, when Messenger is started from within a batch file, tha says:
runas /profile /user:%COMPUTERNAME%\administrator "C:\Program Files\Messenger\Msmsgs.exe" ?

The reasson for above is, that I have to do so for Messenger to start with the right permission, since my laptop logs in to two domains, when I log in.

When I log into the machine as Administrator and starts Messenger without the RUNAS, everything works fine, but if I close it again and start it with the RUNAS (same user account), MsgPlus will not start.

How exactly is the integration between MsgPlus and Messenger, and which conditions is needed for the integration to work?

Can any advanced registry hack solve this issue?

Or should I start Msmsgs.exe with an option in the RUNAS commandline?

Thanks in advance!

Best Regards

Bjarne Dein

Best guess: the batch file would be
code:
runas /profile /user:%COMPUTERNAME%\administrator "C:\Program Files\Messenger Plus! 3\MsgPlus.exe"
runas /profile /user:%COMPUTERNAME%\administrator "C:\Program Files\Messenger\Msmsgs.exe"
That should run Plus! first, then Messenger, both as Admin.

RE: RUNAS problem
If the hookingmethod of Plus! is set to alternate (plus > preferences > general > miscellanious) then Plus! will start when you start MSN Messenger/Win Messenger....wouldn't this solve your problem? You won't need a startup entry for Plus! in the runas this way.
