So you could save one command line in a shortcut or batch file to quick connect to a database. To avoid storing password ...

Use this: Automatically dial the default Internet connection at Windows startup
With the slight modification that do not set "When I logon", but set "At system startup".
You still need to disable "prompt for name and password" as "om sai" said.

Check out Autoruns by Microsoft.
This utility, which has the most comprehensive knowledge of auto-starting locations of any startup monitor, shows you what programs are configured to run during system bootup or login, and shows you the entries in the order Windows processes them. These programs include ones in your startup folder, Run, RunOnce, and ...

Remove the loop from your script
Place the script into some reasonable directory (e.g. /usr/local/sbin/)
Place a cron job description into /etc/cron.d/ , e.g.
* * * * * myuser /usr/local/sbin/myscript
This will make your script run every minute. Then, to be completely on the safe side, you'd need to add some way to ensure that only once instance is ...

ok, booting to Desktop takes 32s and the system is fully booted in 116s:
timing bootDoneViaExplorer="32711" bootDoneViaPostBoot="126711"

I'm reasonably sure there is no way to impose a specific startup order on the various entries without invoking third-party tools for some of the locations listed in Autoruns.

It appears this window is associated with the "Dell System Detect" application, which was installed automatically through the Dell Support website as part of their online diagnostic tool. Kind of bogus that it runs on startup all the time. Uninstalling the application removed the startup window as well.
Having said that, I'll still happily accept another ...

At first check /etc/inittab file. There is a line like id:2:initdefault So it will start at runlevel 2 (in my case). So this will start at boot: /etc/init.d/rc 2. So all scripts starting S##somename (# is a decimal digit) in /etc/rc2.d$ will be run. These are symbolic links to the scripts in ../init.d.
So similar has to be done in your case. If your ...

I created a shortcut as follows:
"%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Windows Media Player\wmplayer.exe" "C:\Users\Administrator\Music\Playlists\favs.m3u"
My playlist is obviously named "favs.m3u"
I tested this on a Windows 8 PC and a Windows 7 PC.
