Take a look at Autohotkey. It is a scripting language for Windows that can do things like simulate key presses and mouse clicks, and a whole bunch more. If you can write it in their scripting language and compile it to an executable, that can be run on startup. I use it to automate the interactions of multiple programs.
I have an example script for checking the state of check boxes and sending mouse clicks to my Perseus SDR control panel here: https://sites.google.com/site/spectrumlabtesting/home/resetperseus-exe Maybe you can do something similar. If you can program, you can do it in their scripting language. If you mark your internet connection as a metered connection, Windows 10 will delay most updates. You can manually trigger the updates or change to unmetered to run them. I hope this helps. 73, Mark W7MLG On Wed, Aug 15, 2018, 11:44 AM Warren Merkel wrote: > I'm looking to get the KPA1500-Remote utility to survive these darn > Windows 10 forced reboots after Windows Update.
