Board index » Windows Vista » How to place shortcut in startup

Windows Vista4
Hello:



I am looking for the methods that can place the shortcut on startup. I

have try to place BGINFO but it show that I can't place here.



Any methods I can place it?



Thanks!


-

Click the "Start" button, Click "All Programs" then right click the

"Startup" folder.



Notice one of the options is "Open All Users".



Select it, and try putting the shortcut to the program you want to run for

all users there.

Click on the Start Orb, click All-Programs, find the Startup folder,

right-click it then click Explore. This will open the folder itself.

From there you can put whatever shortcuts you need.

I'm not entirely sure how you failed. Where my instructions not clear

enough? But here is another, hopefully clearer, set of instructions:





- Move the mouse pointer over the start button (The round blue icon

in the bottom left of your scren) and then use the LEFT mouse button

to click it

- I whole list of icons appears, of which one is labelled "All

Programs". This will be at the bottom of the list. Again, use the LEFT

mouse button to click it.

- The list will change to show another whole bunch of icons, which

look like folders. One of these is labeled Startup. use the RIGHT

mouse button and click the icon labeled startup.

- A menu will appear that contains several command, of which you want

to use the LEFT mouse button to selct the one that says Open.

- The Windows Explorer window will OPEN to that folder. Place

whatever shortcuts you want in there, and they will execute whenever

you login.Oh, and btw, your first post mentioned something called BGINFO? If you

don't know how to create a startup shortcut, then trust me, you don't

want to be messing about with tools like that. Eventually you're going

end up doing something you shouldn't.



O.T: Apologies for the sarcastic response to this topic. I;ve had a bad

day and have just about had enough of people being too friggin stupid to

follow even a simple instruction. I'll refrain from such nonsense in

future posts (unless of course its to TaiBear, who's just asking for

it!)
