How do I add a program to startup automatically in Windows 10
There are certain programs I want to have running as soon as my machine starts. Like Outlook and Skype. I don't want to have to start each one every time I power up my computer. How do I do this?

has anyone ever considered amalgamating questions along with answers? it always seems to be the policy to say 'duplicate question' when the reason for the new question was that the original search produced zero results based on the forming of the question.
