  I set "Run at Startup" to 'check'.
  Next time when the computer restarts, QAP does not automatically start. I start it manually, and when I check in General Options, I see the setting had been unchecked. I check it again, Save the setting, and next time I restart the computer the same thing happens again.
  
  I am currently running QAP v10.3.2 on a desktop computer running Windows 10 Pro.

  Hi Sergui,
  
  Did you install QAP with the Setup program or with the portable ZIP file?
  
  If you installed it with the Setup program, maybe something in your security setup prevents QAP from writing to the registry (let me know if you are not familiar with the registry keys and RegEdit). Normally, the startup command is written to this key in your registry:
  
  Folder: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
  Key name: Quick Access Popup
  Key value (string): QuickAccessPopup.exe
  
  If it is not created by QAP and if you can't create it manually, you could reinstall QAP in portable mode (download the ZIP file). Then, the startup configuration is done using a file shortcut in your Startup folder.
