Windows 10: How do I find out what a startup task in task manager is?

I have a mystery app on my Startup tab in Task Manager simply labelled as "King". It doesn't show up in my programs and files; and I have no idea what it is or does. I also didn't install it. All I know is it's called "King", it's a startup app and it's disabled. There's no picture or anything to tell me what it could be.How do I find out what that app is? I've already tried right-clicking and then choosing the "Search Online" function; it comes up with a music group from the UK called "King King".

Task Manager - Startup tab

Actually, I like your suggestion as a first step.

Unchecking the wrong thing in Autoruns can brick a system.

 

Task Manager-Startup

Here are three methods to invoke a task:

1. By placing a program or a shortcut into this folder:
   
   c:\Users\Michael\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
2. By specifying it in this registry location: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
3. By creating a scheduled task that gets triggered at startup or at logon time.

 

Windows 10 - cannot add exec to Startup in Task Manager

I purchased a new computer with Windows 10 already installed. I am trying to add an exec to the startup list but Win10 will not accept it. The exec runs successfully on my Windows 10 machine if I start it manually.

Steps I've taken: Task Manager, Startup Tab, File>Run New Task. (browse to location, select.) It will start immediately, but does not show up on the list to autostart, nor does it start on reboot.

Any suggestions?
