Start TeamViewer with Windows

Hi,

I'm having problems with the option 'start windows with TeamViewer'.

Is it posible that after the last update, if this option was selected, the update will cause to reset this option to default (do not start with windows) ?

I've seen this to many times that I dont know if I forgot to check the option or something that I am not aware is happening ! Has someone encountered the same problem ?

Is it related to this maybe...

I am trying to solve this without the need to go physically to the machine..

If someone could guide me please.. thanks !

Hello @Adri_Carrillo,

We are not aware of any issues with the auto-start on Windows.

Have you enabled the option again and checked if it remains?

Thank you @JeanK for your time !

Of course I enabled the option again.. for the moment everything is correct !

I keep an eye on this..

I have this problem on 1 of my computers. It gets unchecked when I do an update. Fortunately on reboot it starts up even though the box reverts to being unchecked. I then have to recheck it every time. Has anyone since March found a work around?

We made a batch file and put it in the startup folder of windows. So every time that the computer reboots, we are sure that teamviewer is going to run !

For the "star with windows" option, we didn't find anything to solve the problem.

Hello @jrgimbel and @Adri_Carrillo,

Thank you for your input!

I can also recommend opening a ticket and attaching the logs of the impacted computers.

Hi @JeanK ,

Yes, I already did that and they didn't find anything that could help us solve this.. They told us about a version update problem and also to do some modifications in the windows registry..

And apparently it was the first time that they received a ticket about this kind of problem..

I have the same problem. TeamViewer runs fine for a while and then the service stops and, mysteriously, the Start TeamViewer with Windows checkbox (under an admin account) becomes unchecked. I set the Automatic startup to "delayed" and that did help get the service to start, however eventually the checkbox unchecks itself and then when Windows is rebooted it does not restart.

It feels like the service gets knocked out for some reason and then TeamViewer concludes that the checkbox should be cleared. Maybe this is happening when an update occurs? I noticed it recently and the update date was July 1. For the moment I have turned off automatic updates, we'll see if that helps. I can do updates manually for a while.

I am using Windows 10 Home on the client side with TeamViewer 15.19.5 (64 bit). The user that is normally logged in is not an administrator.

I have the same problem on ONE(1) of my computers. Even though the "Start with Windows" box is checked, it does not! The computer with the issue is the one I need most to start so I can assess while on trips. If for some reason there is a restart while I'm away I need Teamviewer start, else its all for naught.

I have the same problem. Nothing I do gets Teamviewer to respond, although I have now got it to start as a service and can see it is running in Taskmaster. This is a recent problem as I have been able to access my spare system headless for ages. Both systems are Win10 latest, and no icon is displayed in the taskbar on either system. Obviously I can start it by hand on my local system, although this causes the "Allow this program to make changes" dialog, but equally obviously I can't do this on the remote.
