Im so sorry. Im italian.

;Running a .exe file on Windows Start
!include "MUI.nsh"

Name "START WINDOWS"
OutFile "STRWIN.exe"

!insertmacro MUI_LANGUAGE "Spanish"

Section
WriteRegStr HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE "Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run" \
"Notepad" "$WinDir\Notepad.exe"
MessageBox MB_OK "The Notepad Running as Windows Start"
SectionEnd

When i restart windows , notepad start (and is ok)

The problem is, when i open regedit and check on HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
i cannot find that new reg

However thanks for fast reply Anders

NSIS is a 32-bit application and writes to the 32-bit part of the registry by default so check under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run if you are running a 64-bit version of Windows.

Use "SetRegView 64" if you need to the 64-bit part of the registry...
