&xwp; offers you two special new folders for system startup and shutdown.
The &xwp; Startup Folder is a replacement of the standard
&os2; startup folder. The original continues to work, and both folders can be
used together.
Compared to the Desktop startup folder, the &xwp; startup folders have the
following advantages:
- You can have several startup folders -- the original Desktop startup folder,
and any number of &xwp; startup folders.
- For each of the &xwp; startup folders, you can set individually whether
its objects should always be restarted or only after a reboot
in its respective properties notebook.
- The startup folders can display a progress window while processing the
folder's contents, and you can cancel processing.
- You can set initial and per-object delays for the startup folders
in a startup folder's properties notebook.
By contrast, the &xwp; Shutdown Folder will be executed before
the eXtended Shutdown procedure of &xwp;. By using this folder, you may have
certain tasks executed which you need before switching off your computer.
For a detailed description of these two folders please consult the
&xwp; User Guide.
