Posted October 25, 200717 yr One of the guys I work with personal start folder disappeared (deleted accidentally perhaps), so I simply recreated it and added the appropriate shortcuts to it, but the programs won't launched at startup. I rebooted again, but they still didn't start. I didn't know why, so I just moved all the shortcuts to the to the "All Users" startup folder. They launched fine, but now 2 copies of every program launched. I checked using Defender, and they're listed in there twice, once in the "User Profile Startup Folder" and once in the "All Users Startup Folder." I'm not sure why because there's only 1 shortcut on the disk, and that's in the "All Users" startup folder. It appears that Vista thinks the all users startup folder and their personal user startup folder are the same. How do I change it so programs in the user's profile startup folder load when Vista starts, and that programs in the "All Users" statup folder don't load twice? Thanks...
