Self-booting AmiKit X (RabbitHole problems!)

I made AmiKit X boot up by itself, by making a shortcut to the WinUAE config file (full-window.uae), and placed shortcut inside Startup folder in Windows 7.

This boots AmiKit X after Windows is finished loading,

BUT then RabbitHole programs won't open (if I boot AmiKit X using the Startup shortcut)

(If I shutdown AmiKit X and then boot AmiKit X again then RabbitHole programs work again)

Do you have any idea why RabbitHole programs wont work in AmiKit X, if booted using Startup shortcut?

Thanks

Probably it cannot find the winlaunch.alib file if launched like this. Try to copy it from WinUAE\winuae_dll to WinUAE folder.
Or check WinUAE 3.5 where the winlaunch is integrated.

Thanks, it worked after copying winlaunch.alib file to WinUAE folder

I hope you can make this similar problem work also:

If AmiKit X boots using Startup shortcut, and I double-click on a .mp4 or .pdf file inside the Amiga filemanager, that file won't open in a Windows program, like it should when using "Full-window/RabbitHole compatible" configuration in WinUAE.

But if I boot AmiKit X normally, then .mp4/.pdf files inside Amiga filemanager will open just fine in a Windows program.

Is there a similar solution, where another file should be copied to WinUAE folder, like in the previous problem ?

Thanks

I have no idea what's happening there. Probably some absolute vs. relative path problem?
What you're trying is not a regular way to start AmiKit so I am afraid I cannot help you there much. I am sorry.
