I found an old thread from 2015, but that didn't really help. I am wondering where the tickbox for "start with windows" is. Can't find it.

Hi idiocracy

you have to do that in Windows 10 autostart folder in the start menu. You can do that by: 1. Press the Windows Logo Key + R, type shell:startup, and then select OK. This opens the Startup folder. 2. find the app you're looking to add or remove, and drag and drop it in the folder or copy it, then Paste the shortcut to your app into the Startup folder to have it run at startup.
