Script Host message on startup
I have this annoying Windows Script Host Settings window pop up on me every time I start up windows.

It has one tab "script" and says

"stop script after specified number of seconds"

with options to choose 1, 2, 3, seconds etc..

and

"display logo when script executed in command console" as a box tick option

very weird.
what is this? and how do I get rid of it?

thanks very much!

Hi

I had the same problem some days ago and it really bugged me a lot. After googling a good amount of time i came across this page and found it helpful (not very confusing and (may be) have no side effects). After completing the steps the problem is gone..

Here are the steps:

Quote:
1.) In run type regedit
2.) Navigate to Hkey_local_machine \software \microsoft \windowsNT \currentversion \winlogon
3.) Here there is a userinit registry double click on that
4.) In the Value data field there will b something like C:\WINDOWS\system32\userinit.exe, C:\WINDOWS\system32\wscript.exe
5.) Delete the C:\WINDOWS\system32\wscript.exe part so that the field only has C:\WINDOWS\system32\userinit.exe,
6.) Click ok and close the registry editor and then restart windows
Hope this will solve ur problem..
