Windows 8, launch application on start up - windows-8

Is there a way to launch a desktop application and skip the start screen at the same time when using Windows 8. I tried making a new Scheduled Task but that only started the application in the desktop, but it did not skip the Metro screen. I pinned the app on the Metro start screen. Is there a way to launch the tile?
Thanks in advance.

You cannot skip the start screen with windows 8, but windows 8.1 will enable this option.
To start a desktop application, you can put an link of the executable into this folder:
Press WIN+R on the keyboard
type: shell:startup and press enter.
Put the link into this folder
Done

To launch on desktop :
Registry key : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
Value : Shell
Put: explorer.exe/select,explorer.exe
OR
Sheduled task : launch %systemdrive%\Windows\explorer.exe ;)
To launch your application
Scheduled Task is a good solution ;)

“launchPackager.command” can’t be opened

Just updated my Mac to the official release of Ventura, and I cannot launch my application via react-native run-ios.
Expected behavior:
running react-native run-ios will launch an Xcode simulator and a terminal window with Metro running.
Current behavior:
Xcode simulator opens, main terminal says app was built successfully, but an error is thrown instead of the metro terminal opening:
“launchPackager.command” can’t be opened because (null) is not allowed to open documents in Terminal.
The simulator just shows a white screen and can't be interacted with.
What I've tried:
manually opening node_modules/react-native/scripts/launchPackager.command
opens Metro terminal but is not connected to the app
warn No apps connected. Sending "reload" to all React Native apps failed. Make sure your app is running in the simulator or on a phone connected via USB.
info Reloading app...
giving Terminal full disk access (no change)
This happened to me after upgrading to macOS Ventura. I happen to use iTerm as my main terminal, not the built-in Terminal.app so the following fix only applies to that scenario:
Set iTerm as the Default Handler for *.command Files
Open node_modules/react-native/scripts/ in Finder (open node_modules/react-native/scripts/)
Right-Click on launchPackager.command and click Open With then choose Other...
In your Applications directory, select iTerm and click Always Open With
After this, you might need to run npm run ios again from this terminal window. However, from now on, Metro will open in a new iTerm tab instead of trying to open the command in a new Terminal window.
For me, this was the desired behaviour and it removed this warning.
Note In future, any *.command files will now open with iTerm instead of Terminal.
I encountered the same problem as you, I installed another terminal (iTerm2), then randomly found a .command file, and in the display introduction, changed the default opening method to iTerm2enter image description here
I'm having this issue after upgrading my MacOS to Ventura 13.1.
If you don't want to use iTerm as the accepted answer suggest, the workaround I found was to look for the launchPackager.command file inside node-modules/react-native/scripts/ and open this file manually every time you run your app for the first time (specifically when the error pop-up appears). This will open the terminal with metro running already.
I know that manually processes are not the best, but I don't want to use iTerm :)
Using Intel version of apps (Webstorm, Android Studio, other IDE etc...) fixed my problems. I encountered the same issue and thanks to Intel version of Webstorm and Xcode on Rosetta I can able to pod install and other operations.
Note: I'm using Intel version of Android Studio, WebStorm. Also Xcode uses Rosetta 2. No problem detected and everything works perfect. I can able to develop React-Native & Native Android & iOS and Flutter apps without problem. Before that I was using Silicon version of WebStorm and almost no function worked.
Config: MacBook Air, macOS Ventura 13.2 on Apple M1 processor.
For Most of the case you just have to delete node_modules and install modules again (npm i). This happens when project was copied from old mac which had node_modules folder created by the old user, or if the system thinks so
This happened to me after i configured my terminal for the look and feel - but with iterm2, oh my zsh, and powerlevel10k

Intellij 2017.3.5 emulator cannot launch

I am having problem after I updated my sdk via intellij updates. my sdk resides in D:/sdk, now after updating when I launch the AVD and click triangular green button to lunch the emulator. Nothing happens no emulator is launching I don't know why.
It probably has something to do with virtualization.
Check if virtualization is enabled in the BIOS setting of your machine. And if you're working on Windows make sure "Hyper-V" options are disabled in "Windows Features".

test run react native app on iphone

I've signed developer account in xcode.
I connected iphone to mac.
I pressed cmd+b and it show built successful
Then what? How to make the app appear on iphone?
You can always go the route of creating a dev server that is only accessed through your WiFi.
See the following:
https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/running-on-device.html
When you connect your device then xcode checks if it's version matches with the device and if it matches then you just need to run the application from xcode by clicking the play button or CTRL+b. Then npm package runs through terminal and finally if the build is successful, the application automatically start running on your device.
Please have a look at the documentation: https://reactnative.dev/docs/running-on-device
If you followed the steps on the React Native website, you will be able to do the following commands on the command line
first, cd to your project directory like this:
cd MyApp
then, once you are in the same directory as your app, start the app with the following command,:
react-native run-ios
This should do it, if not, it will tell you what you are missing.
UPDATE:
I didn't realize it was specific to a real device, in that case, just press the Play button on the top left, pressing Cmd + B just builds the app, press Cmd + R to run.

ERROR : Invalid "--device-id"

I am facing a problem while running my app from titanium studio. my previous app was running properly but i created new project and then when i try to run my app, it says
[ERROR] : Invalid "--device-id" value "AVD"
For help, run: titanium help build
[ERROR] Application Installer abnormal process termination. Process exit value was 1
here AVD is my android virtual device name. my device is running properly.
Possible reasons and solutions
Bug in the Android SDK
There was a bug in the Android SDK which is already fixed. The fix was released with Android SDK-Tools 22.6.2. Here are some more information from the Appcelerator Bugtracker.
The (real) device doesn't trust your computer
The USB-Debugging is active on you device, so It is displayed in the device list, but the device doesn't trust your computer. To fix that unplug the device and plug It again. Wait for the trust this computer dialog and click ok.
Corrupted / Wrong "run config"
Sometimes it happens that the run configurations gets corrupted or you have added a wrong one. In this case you can delete the configuration under "Run Configuration":
Click the arrow with the current device
Click on "Run Configuration"
Select the not working configuration (e.g. under Titanium Android Emulator)
Click on the red "X" Close the dialog
and "run" the device again

Strange Issue: Application does not show in Main Menu after installation

I am developing an application for Symbian S60 V3. The application can be run properly on Simulator on PC. It can be transferred to Phone. On Phone, it can be clicked to installed. But after installation, I cannot find the installed application for running. It just disappear.
Is there any hint ?
Did you create the application with user interface? If it's just some bacjground process without icon and GUI then it won't be visible.
Did you check under Applications link (or Installed or whatever it is called in different systems).
Do you see your app listed in Settings -> Application Manager?
