Press Windows key + R, paste this file path in there and press enter: %appdata%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

Right click -> New -> Shortcut

In the shortcut window click on “Browse” and then select your AHK file

2. type `shell:startup`

3. copy paste your ahk file from the folder to the place which just opened

… and you‘re done!

You can Use the Windows Registry.

Try this AHK Code:

c:\examples\example1.ahk

^B::

^r::
RegWrite, REG_SZ, HKEY_CURRENT_USER, Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run,example1,"c:\examples\example1.ahk" /background
return
