There are several ways to do this.
You can check for the presence of an UI object, you can use Image recognition or check for a specific text

You can use the Windows task scheduler to start te PAD flow on each logon, and then it will execute whatever you program in the flow.
So in your case, if I understand correctly, you build loop with actions that wait for specific GUI element/window, does something if that appears and goes to next loop iteration
