How to autoload PC Programs in Windows 10 at startup

Many people like to boot their PC and have the essential PC programs ready for work on the go!
To autoload some of your PC programs, first of all, make sure your PC is not in tablet mode, if it's in tablet mode switch it back to desktop mode.
How to autoload PC Programs in Windows 10 at startup
Proceed to open the Startup folder by clicking on the "Window "key + "R" to make popup the Run Window.
Now input into the Run Window, "shell: startup" as seen in the image below.
This command will make appear the startup folder which is apparently empty of files, Now we will place the shortcut of the folder or app you want to autoload at startup into the startup folder, the easiest way to do this is to drag and drop the shortcut folder from desktop into the startup folder, mindfully, dragging and dropping the icon will permanently move the shortcut file of the app away from the desktop, if it's an app you use often and you want it to remain on your desktop,  then hold down the "c" key as you drag and drop the shortcut icon into the startup folder.
This commands means that a copy of the file should be sent to the startup folder and the desktop shortcut should be retained.
Henceforth, all of the apps you dragged to startup folders should now automatically load at startup when your PC boots.
