MADRIX provides various settings to choose which features should be enabled when the software or your computer starts.
| ▪ | Go to Preferences > Options... > Startup [Keyboard shortcut: Ctrl+Alt+O > Startup] |
| ▪ | Start MADRIX After Booting Windows - Starts MADRIX automatically once you log in into Windows. |
| ▪ | Start With Timeout (s) - Starts the software with a delay. You can define a time frame in seconds. MADRIX will not fully start until the time has passed. A new loading window will appear before the software starts. It shows a countdown and 2 options: - Start Now - Start the software immediatelly. - Cancel Startup - Cancels the startup and MADRIX will not be launched. This timeout is particularly useful when using network devices with MADRIX. Windows needs some time to initialize such devices first. But MADRIX might be already loaded completely and as a result may not detect the devices. This option prevents that. |
