Just installed NetWorx v25.12 on my Win10 system and it will not start automatically. I have to start it manually by clicking 'C:\Program Files\NetWorx\networx.exe'.
'Start automatically' is ticked in my settings.

Looking for a solution. TIA

Is networx.exe listed in Startup Apps, in Task Manager? If not, uncheck the Start automatically, then hit Apply. Now check Start automatically, then hit Apply. Check if networx.exe is now listed in Startup Apps, in Task Manager.

If that doesn't work, check that other apps (security, anti-virus, system managers) aren't blocking it from starting.

Thanks Jeremy. I decided to just uninstall and instead run as portable which works fine.

I may try again to install later and will retain your suggestion for future reference.
