  Hi Jean,
  
  with the latest QAP version (10.2.1) I can't manage to set it to run at startup even with option flagged.
  
  I spotted a possible bug, because the Windows registry entry seems wrong (full path missing), as attached. If I change it with full path, at system restart the entry is broken again.
  
  Let me know.
  
  Regards.

  Hi Nicola,
  
  Thanks for reporting it. I do not think this problem is generalized (unless other users can report the same issue?). Something unexpected happened. I'll investigate.

  Hi Nicola,
  
  The content of the Run key "QuickAccessPopup.exe" without the full path is correct. Normally, when you install QAP using the Setup program, it creates two entries under the key:
  
  Ordinateur\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\QuickAccessPopup.exe
  
  that should contain the full path to the QAP executable file. This way of registering an app is recommended. Windows use this info if you enter an app file name in the Run dialog box, for example.
  
  Could you check if this info is present and OK in your registry? If it is not, could it be linked to the fact that you installed QAP using Chocolatey?

  I have all keys correctly listed in my registry, as your instructions.
  
  Tried to reinstall (through Chocolatey) but always same behavior. I noticed that right click systray icon "Run at startup" has flag if I set it, but "Run at startup" in options window not. At reboot, it disappears.
  
  I try to investigate more.

  What disappears exactly?
  Normally, the "Run at Startup" check in the Tray menu and the same checkbox in "Options, General" are sync without needing a restart.
