I recently had the idea to make a tool for you guys who dont know how to add something to the startup directory 😏
It's just a fun project though.🤣

Tutorial:
- Type in the name you want the Startup File to have in the Regsitry [NEEDED!]
- Go to "{ FILE }" and open it
- Choose your executable and click "Save"
- Proceed at the override point
Done! 🤗
