Can I run an Overwolf app manually when the PC launches

As far as I understand, the OW extension runs automatically once overwolf detects a game is launched. Is there a way to run an OW extension manually so that we can run it when the PC starts?

Hi - the only way to do this right now, is via the command line

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Overwolf\OverwolfLauncher.exe" -launchapp halpefacnhnimnpalpjklakhhdbpcnfpjoimmkkm

where
halpefacnhnimnpalpjklakhhdbpcnfpjoimmkkm
should be your extension id

and
C:\Program Files (x86)\Overwolf\OverwolfLauncher.exe
should be dynamically built by looking at

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Overwolf (InstallFolder)

Note: If you don’t want the splash screen, just add -silent before the -launchapp
