Start Magnifier at boot, and minimized
Hello Everyone,
Windows' ease of use functionalities include a Magnifier tool which is very useful to me as a teacher. The pain is, it displays its window when started (instead of just running quietly in the background). I found this short thread addressing the matter, but the registry mod proposed did not change anything for me (by the way, I don't see how this trick could achieve the desired effect):
Start magnifier minimized in Windows 10 - Super User
Creating a shortcut to Magnify.exe, changing its Run: property to Minimized does not work either. Or rather, it did work once, but stopped working after I dragged the created shortcut from the Desktop to the Taskbar -- then it stopped working, whether I click the pinned icon in the Taskbar or the shortcut on the Desktop (when I say "working" I mean starting minimized).
The final setup I would like to achieve is for Magnifier to start at every boot, minimized. Making a scheduled task does not even work, returning a message in the "last start" column of scheduler about the task requiring elevation.
Is there a way to achieve... yeah, just this? Have Magnifier start minimized at every log on?
