That would result in the same thing, that the monitor profile would be changed on startup, right? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/load-monitor-profile-before-windows-login/?ID=1269d4b7-d457-4b8d-9f4b-dbfff055ef43#9 Fri, 10 Jul 2020 20:40:40 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/load-monitor-profile-before-windows-login/?ID=1269d4b7-d457-4b8d-9f4b-dbfff055ef43#9 DisplayFusion @kalj: Unfortunately not, sorry! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/load-monitor-profile-before-windows-login/?ID=1269d4b7-d457-4b8d-9f4b-dbfff055ef43#8 Fri, 10 Jul 2020 17:48:15 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/load-monitor-profile-before-windows-login/?ID=1269d4b7-d457-4b8d-9f4b-dbfff055ef43#8 DisplayFusion Has this changed since the release of Windows 10? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/load-monitor-profile-before-windows-login/?ID=1269d4b7-d457-4b8d-9f4b-dbfff055ef43#7 Tue, 26 May 2015 14:18:30 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/load-monitor-profile-before-windows-login/?ID=1269d4b7-d457-4b8d-9f4b-dbfff055ef43#7 DisplayFusion No worries, glad to hear it! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/load-monitor-profile-before-windows-login/?ID=1269d4b7-d457-4b8d-9f4b-dbfff055ef43#6 Mon, 25 May 2015 20:16:56 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/load-monitor-profile-before-windows-login/?ID=1269d4b7-d457-4b8d-9f4b-dbfff055ef43#6 DisplayFusion Yes this is what I'm currently doing, and I've added DF command line .exe to my startup folder, so default profile is automatically loaded after login
Thanks for your replies, DF stays anyway an awesome app ! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/load-monitor-profile-before-windows-login/?ID=1269d4b7-d457-4b8d-9f4b-dbfff055ef43#5 Mon, 25 May 2015 17:18:59 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/load-monitor-profile-before-windows-login/?ID=1269d4b7-d457-4b8d-9f4b-dbfff055ef43#5 DisplayFusion The only workaround I can suggest is that if you're able to type your Windows password blindly, then you should be able to load a Monitor Profile via hotkey after Windows is logged in and DF is started. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/load-monitor-profile-before-windows-login/?ID=1269d4b7-d457-4b8d-9f4b-dbfff055ef43#4 Mon, 25 May 2015 17:18:04 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/load-monitor-profile-before-windows-login/?ID=1269d4b7-d457-4b8d-9f4b-dbfff055ef43#4 DisplayFusion Nope, unfortunately not. The Windows APIs that we use for changing the monitor configuration aren't available at the login screen, so even if we tried to change the profile via a service, it wouldn't work ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/load-monitor-profile-before-windows-login/?ID=1269d4b7-d457-4b8d-9f4b-dbfff055ef43#3 Sun, 24 May 2015 11:41:35 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/load-monitor-profile-before-windows-login/?ID=1269d4b7-d457-4b8d-9f4b-dbfff055ef43#3 DisplayFusion Hi, thanks for your reply
Even if we start it as service we can't change monitor profile ? I saw the only solution to launch app before logging in was to start it as service.
I use a profile for my home cinema configuration (display screen is a projector), so when I shutdown computer in "cinema" profile, I don't want to have to switch on my projector to change monitor profile on startup. Did you have any other solution ? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/load-monitor-profile-before-windows-login/?ID=1269d4b7-d457-4b8d-9f4b-dbfff055ef43#2 Thu, 21 May 2015 17:11:26 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/load-monitor-profile-before-windows-login/?ID=1269d4b7-d457-4b8d-9f4b-dbfff055ef43#2 DisplayFusion Unfortunately it's not possible to change the monitor configuration before logging in, sorry ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/load-monitor-profile-before-windows-login/?ID=1269d4b7-d457-4b8d-9f4b-dbfff055ef43 Wed, 20 May 2015 19:44:43 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/load-monitor-profile-before-windows-login/?ID=1269d4b7-d457-4b8d-9f4b-dbfff055ef43 DisplayFusion Hi,
Someone know how can I launch monitor profile before windows login ? I tried with windows scheduler task but it doesn't works. Is there a solution for that ?
Thanks ]]>
