How to Run Program Automatically at Startup on Windows 10:
First of all you need to locate your
Startup. But before that make a small note that each user on a computer has totally another
Startup folder. So if you add a shortcut to any program to the
Startup folder from the user account that you are logged into then it will run when that particular
account is logged into.
So bring the Run command dialog box into your computer screen by pressing
Windows and R
Type shell:startup
on the command field and click Ok.
The Startup folder for the logged in user account will come on the screen.
For the programs that you wish to run automatically at boot add their shortcuts to the Startup
To create a program shortcut right click on an empty area of the
Startup folder and select New followed by
Shortcut.
On the newly opened Create Shortcut window click on the
Browse link and find the file that you wish to run automatically.
Provide a name to the shortcut created.
And click Finish.
For the programs whose shortcuts are already created, you can shift them to the
Startup
In case you want to disable the created shortcuts than you can do from
Task Manager.
Or you can easily remove the shortcut from the
Startup.
Thank you!
