    Correction for the path:

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

    Replace 'Username' with your account

    Hi Cy4n_, I am Paulo. I'm an Independent Advisor.

    Check your list of programs if those apps are disabled from running on startup. Settings > Apps > Startup or right-click on your taskbar and choose Task Manager > Startup. Enable them then restart your PC

    If those aren't disabled, try to locate each shortcut of the app and place those in this path.

    C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\StartUp

    Restart and check if this works.

    I hope this helps resolve the problem.
