How it works
- It has no settings.
- It fires once for routines that are on while KeyRoutines starts.
- Adding or saving the trigger later doesn't fire it; the routine waits for the next start and says so.
- The routine gets the time KeyRoutines started.
Routines that use it
Morning apps
Open your mail, chat and browser with Open app and place them with Apply layout.
Sound at sign-in
Set the default audio device and volume so every session starts the same.
Reset a toggle
Remember away as off at startup so a one-key AFK routine always starts fresh.
Good to know
- It only runs when KeyRoutines starts, so it depends on KeyRoutines starting with Windows.
- It doesn't run when you add it; you'll see it the next time KeyRoutines starts.
Questions
- How do I run something when Windows starts?
- Use the When KeyRoutines starts trigger. KeyRoutines starts at sign-in, so the routine runs every time you log on.
- Why didn't my startup routine run when I saved it?
- It only fires when KeyRoutines starts. It will run the next time you sign in or restart the app.
