I am wanting to put something to have a starting the program windows automatically at startup

I have Windows 7 on a laptop Dell Inspiron and I wonder, can I have where my windows automatically Media Player starts when I turn on my computer?

Put a shortcut to an mp3 player or other media file (or a shortcut to a WMP playlist)

C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

[this is the all users startup folder]

You could also put in the following folder, but only if your startup takes you directly to a specific account;

\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\StartupyourusernameC:\Users\

[this is the start-up folder for yourusername]

You probably know this bit already but just in case where:

The default location for the WMP playlists

\My Music\PlaylistsyourusernameC:\Users\

If you set up a playlist in WMP, can go in this folder, right click on the file PlayListName.wpl & select Create a shortcut and then move this shortcut to the chosen above startup folder.

You can edit the playlist in WMP then as much as you want - setting up you made of the works in the name of the playlist so as long as this does not help, then, the action will proceed as planned.

I don't know what your goal is, but if it is to have the PC wake up & play music as an alarm call, then you can do it in Task Scheduler instead if you wanted [which is what I do].  But this would require the PC to sleep rather than turned off and therefore requires to be already logged on to a user account.
