setup NK2Tray as Startup

To setup NK2Tray as the windows startup some things have to be considered:

First the nk2tray exe to a folder where u have write rights. Otherwise the app cannot write its settings file.

When these things are met you can add it to the autostart by following these steps:

  1. Press the Windows logo key + R, and then copy and paste shell:startup into the text field and then select OK. This opens the Startup folder in File Explorer.

  2. Press Ctrl + N to open another File Explorer window, and use it to go to where you have NK2Tray saved. Right-click on NK2Tray and select Create shortcut.

  3. Select the shortcut and press Ctrl + X.

  4. Select the other File Explorer window that you have open and press Ctrl + V. This moves the shortcut into the Startup folder.

NK2Tray will now launch when you start your computer, even if you move the original file somewhere else or rename it, as long as the shortcut is in the Startup folder.
