im confused about this ive wanted to make a project about it but i just cant make it tried checking others code but didnt understand it.
well could someone tell me
if i wanted to create a builder with checkboxes like
run chrome on start
kill chrome on start
so how you would do it with builder and stub i dont understand the stub part
how the thing can understand if i checked run chrome on start and builded the exe from that
i wish you could make example code or something for me

So basically you're asking about boolean expressions, that's some pretty fundamental shit m8.

Also the Stub is the virus, thats what you bind to another file or distribute directly, it's what has all the virus stuff.

As far am I'm understanding, you want [certain app] to start on startup.
If that is your problem/objective, you can literally just go to settings/properties and make it run on startup.

Here is an article you could have found by doing your own research.

Also the Stub is the virus, thats what you bind to another file or distribute directly, it's what has all the virus stuff.

A stub isn't a virus. A stub, by definition is a subcomponent of an a bigger project. By this definition, there are things such as:

- Stub or proxy methods ( Functioning as a wrapper around another component for easier access )
- Stubs as a smaller piece of "work" used in distributed computing.

etc.

In malware related terms, a stub would be the viral part of the program and the server would function as the main application.


@OP usually in VB, you'd create a resource in the application with specific values set to true or false ( Which the builder changes accordingly ).
In the actual application, upon startup you'd check the values of these using a resource reader and perform the designated actions.

Optionally you could use CodeDom to dynamically create applications and define specific tokens in your application which the builder replaces before compiling.
Example of using this with CodeDom would be:

// Excuse my syntax, I don't know VB much, I'm using pseudocode

function Startup()
{
   if( __KILL__CHROME__ )
       KillChrome();
   else if( __RUN__CHROME__ )
       StartChrome();
}

In your builder:

if( killChromeCheckbox.Checked() == TRUE )
    MySource.ReplaceString( "__KILL__CHROME__ ", "TRUE" );
else
    MySource.ReplaceString( "__KILL__CHROME__ ", "FALSE" );
if( startChromeCheckbox.Checked() == TRUE )
    MySource.ReplaceString( "__RUN__CHROME__", "TRUE" );
else
    MySource.ReplaceString( "__RUN__CHROME__", "FALSE" );

And then simply compile your source using CodeDom ( Which you can read more about here: https://msdn.microsof*****m/en-us/lib...vs.110%29.aspx )

A stub isn't a virus.

I didn't say a stub, I said the stub, specifying it to this thread.

[fwsefwsgrgwhergr]

yeah i found this codedom thingy off another forum when i did more research
also im not making virus or any kind stuff like that
i just wanna test things for future projects

Don't post on threads asking for help if you don't understand your self what you are doing.

Just Process.Start(URL) will open the default browser with that URL. Specifying a location to start something like a webbrowser is beyond retarded because it could be installed in multiple possible locations.

He is right: that is a (little) part of the code to:

run chrome on start(up)

by calling Process.Start(arg1).
