I have a mini pc I want to stream one camera on 24/7. I have the NVMS software set to do this, and I've added it to the Windows startup folder, but when the PC reboots the software doesn't restart. I am going to write a batch script to delay the startup and see if that's the issue, but I thought I would ask here if anyone else has had trouble getting the NVMS software to auto start on Windows 10.

Are you adding a Link to the startup folder? I haven't yet had any issues with W10 running startup applications.
press the Windows logo key + R, type shell:startup, then select OK
You could add a batch file
Where TIMEOUT X is seconds until it launches the app.
Please let me know.
TIMEOUT 10
Start /D "C:path of executable"

Yes, I added it to the startup folder. I was going to go down the timeout path as I sort of figured that was what it was, but ended up using this script and running it through task scheduler every 10 minutes in the event that someone closes it and doesn't reboot.
tasklist|find /i "Sibell-NVMS.exe" >NUL
if errorlevel 1 (start "" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Sibell-NVMS\Sibell-NVMS.exe")
goto :eof

That is a better solution. Keep in mind that (goto:eof) will retain the error level, I would use (exit /b 0) to exit out of the script and bring back the error level back to default.
if errorlevel 1 (start “” “C:\Program Files (x86)\Sibell-NVMS\Sibell-NVMS.exe”)
exit /b 0
