RealtimeSync is designed to run as a background process which does not need further
attention. Depending on your requirements there are a number of ways you can start it automatically.
Generally the goal is to execute a command line of the form:
</P>
<div class="greybox">
<div class="greybox_inner">
<FONT FACE="Courier New, monospace"><FreeFileSync installation folder>\RealtimeSync.exe <path to *.ffs_real or *.ffs_batch file></FONT>
</div>
</div>
<BR CLEAR=LEFT>

<h3>Example:</h3>
<div class="greybox">
<div class="greybox_inner">
<FONT FACE="Courier New, monospace">"C:\Program Files\FreeFileSync\RealtimeSync.exe" "D:\Backup Projects.ffs_real"</FONT>
</div>

<LI><p>RealtimeSync should be monitoring while a user is logged in:<br>
Create a new shortcut, enter the command line from above as target and place it into the user's autostart folder.

<LI><p>RealtimeSync should be monitoring while Windows is running irrespective of currently logged in users:<br>
Create a new task in your operating systems's task scheduler and have it execute the command line above
when the system starts. See <A HREF="Schedule%20a%20batch%20job.html">Schedule a Batch Job</A> for an example how to add a task. Then change
the user which runs the task to <B>SYSTEM</B> - a special user account always running in the background.
