How would you, a human being, determine if the program was being run directly after startup? What counts as "directly"? Within 10 seconds? Before any other program with a GUI? Before *any* other program, including background processes? Before the Windows desktop loads? You also said: "What I'm looking to do is have it start up with Windows and automatically swap the wallpapers. This part I have already coded, and as far as I know, it should work." As far as you know, it SHOULD work? How about trying it and finding out? In any case, it sounds to me that what you need is two programs, one which automatically sets the wallpaper at startup, and a second that is a GUI. -- Steven -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
