Startup folder -- Programs launch one at a time?
I have several programs / shortcuts in my startup folder. After I log on, it seems like anything in the startup folder is loaded one at a time (program 1 launches, program 2 doesn't launch until program 1 is opened, etc.). I have most of the same apps in my taskbar, and if I just quickly click on all of their icons, they'll all open simultaneously. I like using the startup folder since it's all automated, but having them load much slower is sometimes annoying. I wonder if manually creating a batch script to automatically open them all would be any faster.
Are my startup folder observations normal?
