"Windows 7: The Missing Manal" - by Skat100 on 03-AUG-2011

Excellent Book!
For one of your updates:
In the content about adding to the startup folder, my experience was that as soon as I right-clicked on the program I wanted to add to the startup folder, the folder closed and I coluld not add the program.
Also, one doesn't click Open to open the startup folder; that does not work. You need to click Expand.
I found it very frustrating to not be able to add a program to the statrtup folder. I still haven't found a way, unless the right-click menu of the program to be added provides a "pin to Startup Folder" choice.
I would very much appreciate it if you would respond to this.
