    How to autostart programs


    I have a few programs in XP that I needed to create a shortcut, then copy the shortcut to the Startup group, in order for the program to start on bootup. However, I cannot see how to do that in Win7. Any help?

    Go to the Start menu -> Click 'All Programs' -> Right click 'Startup' -> Click 'Open' -> Paste needed shortcuts in there

Hello, This is my first post on the forums and I was wondering if there is any way to have an application run on startup but do so in the background, where it just shows on the lower right task bar? Thanks in advance.
