    launching startup programs


    Dear all,

    I have a question about launching startup programs.

    My system is configured to run a GUI program immediately after user logon.
    Instead of placing it in the user's "Startup" directory, the program is invoked via a string value in the registry key "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run".

    This approach used to work fine on WinXP & Win7, but the invocation on Win10 experiences a delay of at least 10s after the desktop appears.
    There is no help even if all other apps in "Settings -> Apps -> Startup" are turned off.

    My question is : how to raise the priority of a particular startup program in the launching sequence ?

    :)

    Adding programs to startup with Windows 7?

    You could add entries to the registry to launch the apps on startup, but it's easier to just add them to the startup foler as Newt suggested.

  3. Why did the startup window get cleared?

    I didn't missed any step, the list was gone and gone , even after using lot of programs the programs were not listed in that list.
