Feature request: Option to launch Betterbird at Windows startup #262

Closed ElimGarak72 closed 7 months ago

ElimGarak72 commented 7 months ago

Hello! It would be nice to have an option to launch Betterbird at Windows startup (choosing to have it fullscreen or minimized).

Thank you!

There is an option to start minimised, see "expert tips" page on the website.

"Start at Windows start" you need to do yourself, via Windows scheduler, startup folder or registry.

The Windows task scheduler is possibly best, it allows for a certain delay after start.
