[tor-relays] So here is my working script of automatically starting windows tor relays bridges when windows starts, and trying to write script to auto update.

Hi all,

So here is my script for automatically starting a Windows (Expert bundle based) relay or bridge when windows starts.

Open a new notepad document. Then add the following to it:

Cd c:/pathwheretorexpertbundleisindtalled

tor.exe -f torrc.txt (assuming your torrc is a text file). Then save this file as batch file in the “startup” folder which should be at C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

What this does is it creates a script for windows to automatically run at startup that tells the os to point to the directory tor expert bundle is installed in and launch tor.exe and read the configuration file. This is tested and working for me. But I am still trying to write a script to automatically download and install the newest tor version when released as well as obfs4, proving difficult as the url changes with each version. Any thoughts are appreciated, thx very much.
