I have a batch file located in the all-users startup folder, which checks for, then runs the asset program executable which is located on a server. I administer a portion of the computers in a corporate domain, and do not have access to the login scripts. My asset program can collect specified registry keys and also specified software files. There are issues involved which I dare not post publicly.

Thanks for your thoughts.
