If you didn’t already know, there are some negative aspects to making applications run at startup on Windows. Today, I’ll teach you how to do this in Windows 8.

We have shown you plenty of ways to remove/disable items from the startup list, but what if you want to do it the other way – force a particular app to run during startup? Most applications don’t have startup parameters that you can configure in settings, meaning that you’ll have to manually add them.


In most situations, we want to have as little apps running during startup as possible, so the whole boot up process will be quick and fast.
