Can I make the WINNOA project run when the PC starts?

[SMT_SOL]

At the end of the Wincc Oa project controller, the user interface is running a vision.
Is there a way to automatically start the project's vision when the PC restarts?

Ha, this one is tricky

Guess you already configured your project to start as service but UI doesnt show up at the end. This is normal as Windows prevents interactive services.

However there is a solution : the startup folder where you can put programs to start after login of user.

So you just put your UI shortcut there, with good options to start relevant project (-proj, -p, and so on). Then you'll see your UI starting after login into computer.

Thank you for your kind answer ~
I set the UI options according to the answer. But
I don't know how to create a UI shortcut...

The Path is:

C:\Siemens\Automation\WinCC_OA\<VERSION>\bin\WCCOAui.exe -PROJ <PROJ> <OPTIONS>

replace <VERSION> with your WinCC OA version, <PROJ> with your project name and <OPTIONS> with your options.

the options can be taken from the WinCC OA console

For example:
-m vision -p vision/login.pnl -menuBar -iconBar -centered
-m gedi

Thank you for your kind answer
As you follow the answer, the vision is executed. But I have a small problem.
Vision does not work because start Project is not executed in WinccOa Console.
What should I do?

Hi,

Go to online help of Wincc OA and check the section for running Wincc OA as a service. This is prerequisite for using this method as I wrote in my first post.
