I'm running Win 8. On my brand new computer (Asus X 550BL) I've included
several apps in my startup folder. Some of them run at system start and some don't.
My Firefox starts from startup ok. A batch file used to run my WAMP server
works ok as well.
But my attempt to startup WinAmp fails to start. Manually clicking my WinAmp
desktop shortcut works fine, but it won't 'auto' startup when that same shortcut
is included the startup folder.
This all worked fine in Win 7.
All the startup folder items are set to run as a admin.
Miffed.
