# Running code when a computer turns on
:::note Use case
You might be aware that CC computers restart when the chunk they are in reloads, startup files provides a way to have the CC computer run arbitrary code after it has finished turning on.

:::note Mass configuration
Unless disabled in the server config, CC computers will look for startup files on disks in attached disk drives. This means that a freshly crafted computer can automatically load a program from that disk startup file.
Apply this to turtles with a nearby chest containing fuel and you can have a turtle factory that automatically programs the turtles after creating them.

CC computers will look for a file or folder with a special name when it finishes loading. Also, CC has a fixed order in which it looks for these files and uses them.

We are down to the two disks both with startup files, the computer finds one of them and searches it for startup files, it finds the files and runs them in the order above. When/if these startup files exit without shutting down the computer then the CC computer drops into the interactive prompt. The computer *didn't* look at the last disk drive and *didn't* use the startup files on its internal storage.

:::note Computers don't remember what they were doing when the chunk unloads
You may have heard of the term "persistence", Computercraft computers do not have persistence. Startup files are currently the closest that CC has to persistence.
