Windows update feed goes down

ron351 · Nov 15, 2017

When my computer gets a automatic windows update and computer reboots the software never starts when the computer restarts after the update so my feed is then down until I manually start it again..
I believe it is in the startup list but never does start.
I use Scannercast for my feed by the way
Any suggestions?

Disable Auto Updates....Do them at your convenience...

Pretty sure it is disabled. But guessing since it is a exe that program it won't run on startup or something.

If Win Updates is truly disabled then the OS would stay up and therefore your feed would stay up. I would check again.

If you want to go the Win Updates automatic route then create a shortcut to the exe file and add it to the Startup folder.

Side note:
If using a BCD996P2 with the front USB port for the purpose of text tags, anytime the computer reboots the scanner needs to be power cycled so it's best to use the rear RS-232 port.

Thanks will disable win updates and may try the shortcut thing and add to startup and reboot and see.

Using my Windows 7 64 bit machine, ScannerCast automatically starts and streams after boot, no matter.

updates

mine has done that several times. windows 10 up dates when it is not convenient to you. what program are you using to stream? If you are using scannercast go to the advance tab and on the right of the window put a check in the Start broadcast when Scanner cast starts.
