Wrong Directory Path at startup

Ok ok. By that, I suppose that I can change the value of 6 checkboxes by the values stored in the registry?

Absolutely. That said, note that My.Settings is supposed to be a substitute for the Registry in many situations. You should avoid storing app-specific configuration data and the like in the Registry and use My.Settings for that. Data that needs to be read by the OS or other apps, like these Run values, must still be stored in a common location, like the Registry.
