Where is the startup (autostart) folder in Windows 8?


Well, Windows 8 has no Start Menu any more and the startup folder has disappeared also.


Where can I find that folder? Or is there a new way with Metro?



Answer



It can be found here:


C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

or easier to access with this command in the Run Win+R prompt:


shell:startup

enter image description here


Here are even more explanations of how accessing/viewing the startup folder.
