Startup folder missing

Hello Ken,

The Startup folders are located at the hidden folders below. Do you still have them if you manually navigate to it?

C:\Users\(User-Name)\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

You can also type the command below in the Start Menu search box and press enter to open the user-name location above.

shell:startup

Thanks Brink.
I navigated to the first link and found it's 'disabled' I tried right-clicking on it and going into 'Properties' but couldn't see a way to 'enable' it. Would deleting the word 'disabled' do it ?

C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup takes me to an empty folder.

I can get to 'startup' from 'msconfig' OK

Ken,

I'm not sure what you mean by "disabled". Could you post a screenshot of this?

Thats just a folder named "~Disabled" ....Whatever software you were using to manage the startup folder created that.

Ken,

~Disable appears to just be a folder in the Startup folder. Is there anything in ~Disable? If not, are you able to just delete ~Disable?

Also, check the Properties of the Startup folder to see if it has the Hidden box checked or not. If so, unhide it.

See if moving the Opera shortcut in the Startup folder itself (if you wanted Opera to run at startup), then delete the ~Disable folder.
