How to start Eclipse when Windows 10 starts

Question

I have recently upgraded to Windows 10, and used to have the Eclipse application in my Startup folder. This has now been replaced with a section in Task Manager, and I cannot add Eclipse to this.

Has anyone got round this issue?

Answer 1

The user startup folder in Windows 10 is located by default at C:\\Users\\Username\\AppData\\Roaming\\Microsoft\\Windows\\Start Menu\\Programs\\Startup . Add a shortcut to the program you would like to execute on startup to this folder (in your case Eclipse), and then it should run the next time that you restart.
