A while back I was trying to setup a program to start at startup / boot. I got the right executable to run but I don't know where that executable is.
I could not find the startup folder (and since I am using Windows 10 Enterprise Edition I don't believe there is one). I also checked the registry. However there are no new files under Windows/CurrentVersion/Run.
Not sure where else I can look?

The startup folder on Windows 10 is located at:
C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
(change your username here)
To directly access this folder, open Run, type shell:startup and hit Enter.
The location for ALL users is:
C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\StartUp
Yo open It directly you can you can press WinKey, type shell:common startup and hit Enter.

With 64/32bit virtualization, there are other places to check. Are you able to run this? https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/autoruns
