How do I open a new window on start up using C++?

I don't know how to make a window when I start up Windows. I just want a simple window that has some text in it, such as a reminder. I don't want to download anything, and I think C++ is the easiest way to do it.

The easiest way to display a window with a message in Windows would be use use VBScript. Create a text file with the following in it.

msgbox("hello world")

Now, name the file MyProgram.vbs or anything else with a .vbs extension.

Double click on the file to run it. The message "hello world" should be shown in a small window on your screen. As seen in the image below.

enter image description here

To run it at start up, just drag it in your Startup folder in your Start Menu.
