    Folders keep opening on startup


    My startup keeps opening a lot of folders. I figured out that those folders are all located in my startup folder so I deleted them. However, when I restart, those folders exist again.

    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?

    Folder Opens on Startup in Windows 10


    Hello Billg226 Welcome to the Ten Forums! Not glad to see you back with some headaches however.

    The speech options would be under the Windows Ease of Access found at the bottom of the list of things in the Start menu>AllApps section there where you would go to enable/disable things which could explain why that particular folder keeps being found open on startup. The View option on the menu bar in any Explorer window allows you to slide over the "Change folder and view settings" where the View tab is then opened to check off or uncheck the "restore folders on login" box as pointed to in the image here.

    The highlight lines take you through the steps to see that checked or unchecked where you then click the Apply button to see that set. If that is checked off by chance unchecking that should be an immediate help while you will first want to look in the Ease of Access in case the Speech option has been enabled.

    Folders keep opening on startup

    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.
