    Hi Brink,
    Is it possible to create a startup shortcut for an app in the hidden \Program Files\WindowsApps folder?
    I was thinking it might require taking ownership away from TrustedInstaller to get permission, I just do not like changing the security of Windows core folders if I there is no need to.
    Thank you for your consideration,

    Hello Richard, *Smile

    Depending on which app, you could use the command for it from the tutorial below to create a shortcut of the app, then place that shortcut in your Startup folder.

    Add, Delete, Enable, or Disable Startup Items in Windows 10

    I walked through all steps and still couldn't find a solution.
    I have Win10 Creators Update (1709) 64bit. Ever since I updated I have a problem with utorrent is starting with Windows. It starts occasionally - not every time. It looks like utorrent is starting with windows if I used it a previous day.
    Checked with utorrent settings - NOT set to start with windows.
    used autoruns app frof sysinternals.
    I checked manually task manager and startup folder,
    In settings app - I dont have this new option -startup on the left side as displayed in tutorial.
    I checked every startup location in registry from this tutorial, also in StartupApproved, and there are no utorrent item. So where is this setting hidden?

    I would think maybe you might have missed it somewhhere. Autoruns or a registry search for "utorrent" should find it. You could try uninstalling it with Revo Uninstaller and scan for leftover items, that usually removes all traces of the app.

    So I saved Autoruns result in txt file and still dont find utorrent or torrent. As if it is hidden under some other name? And uTorrent is still runing when computer starts. This started to happen after last windows creators update, its probably related to windows, I am surprised some other users dont have the same problem.

    Sorry you haven't found it yet, it must be some variant of uTorrent. You probably already tried scanning with Malwarebytes, Superantispyware, HitmanPro, Hijackthis, etc. If you don't use restore points or images you are probably headed for a repair or reinstall of W10.
