Ranorex Forum

I have installed an application and i need to restart the system. How can i automate this scenario using Ranorex.

Soon after restart i need run the ranorex application whcih does some functionality like invoking the Webdocument.

Can you let me know how to automate this????

Hello sunitha,
there are several ways to automate a restart with Ranorex.

- in code call: e.g. in VB.NET - automate click on start button -> shutdown -> restart

- over the cmd shell: shutdown -r

For starting automation code after reboot:

- simply include your automation app in the autostart folder
e.g. windows xp english:
C:\Documents and Settings\cschmid\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

- or use the runonce registry key: discussed earlier
