I think it's a pretty good idea to automate this sort of software and schedule it to run whenever the OS restarts, or at the same time every day (or multiple times, depending on usage patterns).

I don't think it's possible to (easily) figure out when to run something right after the updates change any settings, but it's a good idea to automate away manual work as much as possible!

The person that you're replying to certainly has a point about having to run the tool manually being a hassle. Sadly, at the moment there are also no ways to automate running the tool (that i know of), since it's GUI only, as opposed to offering CLI functionality or silent launch options.
