What is the path for the startup folder in windows 2008 server

Is there a folder to keep programs to run while doing starting of the system. As like this "C:\Users\All Users\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup"??.

Thanks, Varun

In Server 2008 the startup folder for individual users is here:

C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

For All Users it's here:

C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

Hope that helps

You can easily reach them by using the Run window and entering:

shell:startup

and

shell:common startup

Source.

SHGetKnownFolderPath:

Retrieves the full path of a known folder identified by the folder's KNOWNFOLDERID.

And, FOLDERID_CommonStartup:

Default Path %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\StartUp

There are also managed equivalents, but you haven't told us what you're programming in.
