Windows Client/Server: Dov'è "Esecuzione Automatica"? Usiamo il comando "shell"

Se lavorate con Windows 8 / 10 ma anche Windows Server 2012 e successive, vi sarete chiesti dove sia finita la vecchia cartella "Esecuzione automatica".

Una domanda più che lecita dato che la cartella "startup" non è visibile nelle versioni più recenti del menu "Start".

Nel caso in cui si renda necessario eseguire un programma all'avvio del PC lo stesso deve essere collocato nella cartella startup del relativo profilo utente. Il suo path potrebbe somigliare a questo

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

Un po' scomodo in effetti, ma per fortuna dalla nostra parte c'è il comando "shell:" che è possibile eseguire per aprire direttamente la nostra cartella.

Il comando deve essere eseguito (Figura 1) nella finestra "Run" o "Esegui", accessibile anche dai tasti WinLogo + R.

shell:startup
