Run Wamp Server on Startup.

Run Wamp Server on Startup.


  • Open Task Schedule (Windows 7 just type Task in search for programs)
  • In the left panel select Task Schedule Library
  • Select Create New task from right panel
  • In the 'General' tab settings give the task a name (Ive called mine WAMP)
  • Select the 'Run with highest privileges' check-box
  • In the 'Trigger' tab click on new button a window will appear than click on 'Begin at the task' combo box and set it to 'At log on' than click ok.
  • In the Action Tab add a new 'Start Program' action and locate the Wamp.exe through the browse button
  • On the 'Conditions' tab make sure the option 'Start the task if only on A/C power' is unchecked.
  • On the Desktop... right click > new > shortcut
  • Right click the shortcut and open properties
  • In the Target add the following

    C:\Windows\System32\schtasks.exe /run /tn {task name}

    Mine looks like this...

    C:\Windows\System32\schtasks.exe /run /tn Wamp
  • Now move the shortcut into your startup directory and restart the system.
