Program that can run on startup to see if a program exists and notify the user if it doesn't. Useful for stuff that might uninstall itself by accident.

I'm writing this because sometimes it can happen to Crashplan and I need to administer it. For now this is Windows- or Wine-only and only checks once on startup if run with a shortcut that needs to be manually added to the startup folder. If run without the /check argument, it will open a config window allowing a list of paths to be edited.

Please don't use this to surveil people like your family and friends.

Just because this is licensed under the GPLv3+ doesn't mean that I support the US FSF or stallman and I'm only doing this in case it becomes widely used.
