1) What you need is to create a batch file with path of wampserver.exe 2) Make Windows Task Scheduler Run the Batch file 3) Open Startup:shell to make the batch file run automatically when the computer Start 4) Disable UAC put it on NERVER NOTIFY mode so that you don't have message when Wamp Server starts.

Answer 3

Follow these instructions to start the appropriate WAMP services on start-up. UAC will not interfere here and there is no need to log in to start your web-server:

1. Log in as an administrator.

2. Start -> Run "services.msc"

3. Right click the service wampapache (may also be called wampapache64). Go to properties and set start-up type to 'Automatic'

4. If you want MySQL to also be available on startup, then repeat step 3 for wampmysqld (or wampmysqld64)
