Instead of opening the iMacros Browser, marking the macro you want to play and clicking the play button, you can create a shortcut to start iMacros and automatically run a predefined macro.

To create a shortcut:

·Locate imacros.exe. This is the iMacros Browser. Typically, this file is located in C:\Program Files\iMacros.  
·Right-click on imacros.exe and select the "Create a Shortcut" option.  
·A new file called Shortcut to imacros.lnk will be created in the same folder. Select the file and right click on it.  
·Select "Properties" and the following dialog will come up:  

shortcut_prop

·In the box Target you find an entry similar to C:\Program Files\iMacros\imacros.exe.  
·Change this to "C:\Program Files\iMacros\imacros.exe"  -macro yourmacro -noexit. You must use quotation marks around the command.  
·Note: Do not change the path in the box "Start in".  
·Ready! You can now move this shortcut to a convenient place (like the Desktop) and start iMacros by simply double-clicking on the shortcut.
