Autostart dont work

[DoodleCup]

I checked the Automatically start with windows in menu. But it dont start automatically. (Windows 11 Pro).

Since this problem is still there, i'll post a workaround. Press the windows key + r and type shell:startup. Then just put a link for the app-launcher.

I know this has been a long-standing report that began after a few windows 11 updates for task scheduler tasks. I'll see if I can get this corrected soon:tm:

Always happy to review pull requests as well :)

Thank you so much for looking into this! I noticed that it sometimes auto starts and sometimes doesn’t. Another weird thing is it doesn’t show up in the Task Manager Startup Apps for me. I don’t remember if this was normal or not though as most of the time in the past clicking the option in the menu usually worked fine.

Also applies to #31

Until it's implemented, you can do a simple workaround using the Task Scheduler.

First create a batch that runs the app-launcher.vbs, then create a scheduled task that runs the batch with high privileges when you log in (it can't run .vbs files). Below are two links that explain in detail how to do these two steps.
