It's very needed action.

You can already do this by putting the executable file in the Windows startup folder.

This might also come in handy https://stefansundin.github.io/elevatedstartup/

But I don't want to add adm. priv. to your app. I just want to add to autorun) Almost every app have it and it's convinient.

Then just move the executable to the Windows startup folder, or register the app to launch at startup from the Compatibility tab if your Windows version provides that option. It won't run as administrator unless you explicitly set it up to do that.

I have Windows 10 22H2. Where is such option?

It should be around here

If you can't find it move the executable to the Startup folder:

With the file location open, press the Windows logo key + R, type shell:startup, then select OK. This opens the Startup folder.

Move the executable in there and it should run whenever you start Windows.

Thank you. I create a link to your app).

But I think this ability would be useful.

I agree that a built-in option would be preferable but at this stage i have not the time nor the interest to do any further developing on this program.

The startup folder is: C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

Put a shortcut to tb-vol-scroll.exe in this folder and this software will be launched when a new Windows session is opened.
