    Can't get GPU-Z to start with Windows 8.1 startup

    I'm not sure how to do that. Could you list the steps for a noob?

    EXE in Startup folder not running


    Try this instead. It's from a Win 7 instruction, but may be the answer for you. You may have to do it from the actual folder rather than the start menu:


    Click the Windows "Start" button and select "All Programs." Right-click the "Startup" folder in the menu and select "Open All Users." This option opens the folder for all users on the computer. Choose "Explore" to open the folder for the currently logged-in user only.
    Right-click the folder or file you want started when the computer boots. Select "Copy Shortcut" from the menu.
    Right-click any white space in the "Startup" folder opened in Step 1. Select "Paste" from the menu list. The program will now open the next time you start the computer.

    Explorer.exe not starting on startup and CMD won't open

    File Explorer Opens on Startup and Delete Windows 10 Upgrade Notification

    press CTRL + SHIFT + ESC

    Go to the Startup tab and look through the list if File Explorer is listed as an item, if it is, select it and click Disable.

    If that does not work Try steps 2 to 5.
