Auto Run My EXE program

[cosmogal]

What sort of coding do I need to do for an exe file, so that it auto run and appears on the Windows task bar once the Window started? For example the anti-virus software that will autorun by itself once the Windows started.

Theres many ways but the easiest way is to create a shortcut in the "startup" forlder of the start menu.

Theres also registry keys that can do that but never used them.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]


add an entry for whatever you want to run on boot
