2. Right-click the app, select More, and then select Open file location. This opens the location where the
shortcut to the app is saved. If there isn't an option for Open file location, it means the app can't run at
startup.
3. With the file location open, press the Windows logo key + R, type shell:startup, then select OK. This
opens the Startup folder.
