Startup menu

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.basics (More info?)

Hi Happy,

To make an application run at every startup, create a shortcut to the
application and place it in the Startup folder. Click Start, Run and type:

%userprofile%\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

This opens the Startup folder of your user profile. Now, right-click the
folder and choose New, Shortcut and type the path for the filename which you
want to execute at startup. You can simply drag the application shortcut as
well. This affects only your user profile startup.

To have the application run at startup for every user who logon to the
computer, place the shortcut in this path instead:

%allusersprofile%\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
