    Windows uses the following locations to determine which apps are started automatically on a given computer:

    Folders:
    C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
    C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

    Registry:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

    BatchPatch does not contain functionality for directly manipulating these folders and registry values, but you could optionally write a custom script to do that, which you could then deploy to each target computer by using the ‘deploy’ feature in BatchPatch.
