ADD THE PROGRAMS TO WINDOWS STARTUP

You can now add your favorite programs to Windows Startup without the need for using the start-up folder. Here is a way to do this:



Open the Registry Editor and go to this path one by one:


HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run


On the right side pane, create a new “String Value: and rename it to the name of the program that you want to add (you can give any name, it doesn’t matter).
Double click on the “String Value”, in the “Value data field add the path of the executable program that has to execute at startup.
Reboot the computer to see the changes in effect.
Works on Windows XP, vista and 7.
