Windows 10: How can I run CoreTemp at startup in a Windows 10 user account?

For security reasons, I normally use a User account for regular computer use, but I would like CoreTemp to run on startup. I can run CoreTemp in my user account by entering my Administrator password after running it, and I can run it automatically at startup in my Administrator account, but I have been unable to get it to run automatically at startup in my User account. Here is what I have done so far to try to fix this.

1. I have changed its shortcut to allow it to run as Administrator in the Shortcuts tab.
2. I have copied its shortcut to the startup folder.
3. I have given full permissions to my User account in the Security tab of CoreTemp's shortcut properties.

The only positive result of any of this is that copying its shortcut to the startup folder caused it to show up in the Startup section of the Task Manager. It still does not show anything in the Taskbar or send temperature data to Rainmeter unless I manually run it. Is there anything else that I can do?

Strange Windows 10 User Account issue.

Unfortunately I had done those steps numerous reboots, it just, reappears for no good reason. The base account isn't even a Microsoft account, it's a local account.

I haven't quite tried the built in administrator account on W10, but so far in my experience on my own computer, the built in account seemed to have absolutely no more control than I did on my own.

It's just strange, I go in, it warns me twice about deleting the account, then it's gone. Reboot, and it's back?

EDIT: Just to specify, both command line and Netplwiz both say only HIS account exists on the computer, it doesn't list this rogue account. This is what I meant in my first post about the fact that even Windows doesn't seem to believe it exists, HALF the time. *Frown

 

Strange Windows 10 User Account issue.

Look at this thread,How to Delete a User Account in Windows 10, it may help. You can try the various methods.
Make sure you are using an administrative account when removing the account or log on using the Administrator's account.

Or, if you are patient and know what you are doing, manually remove it.

Either way, Goodluck.
