    I don't understand the options. Is it, actually, a question itself or a poll?

    You may also bear in mind that you might need to add it into the HKEY_CURRENT_USER instead of the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE so that it only runs if the users who installs your app is logged in the machine.

    You can also place a shortcut to the program in the Startup folder.

    Depending on your OS, the methods vary.

    There's of course the Startup(all), registry(all), services(NT), win.ini(all, i think).
