How to Get My Live Wallpaper App to Start on Windows 11 Boot?
Asked by

I'm trying to set up my Live Wallpaper app from the Microsoft Store to launch automatically every time I turn on my Windows 11 computer. I've enabled the 'Autostart' option within the app and also in the task manager. Additionally, I copied the app's executable file into my startup folder, but I'm unsure if I did it correctly since Windows apps can be tricky to access. I used the 'Everything' app to locate it, but it seems to have better permissions than I do for accessing those folders. I find it kind of frustrating because it feels unnecessary restrictive.

Honestly, if you really care about your PC, I’d avoid using live wallpapers. They can put unnecessary strain on your system. If you still want to experiment with dynamic wallpapers, you might want to try alternatives like Rainmeter, Windhawk, Lively Wallpaper, or Wallpaper Engine, which is super popular but comes at a cost.
