Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'm always frustrated when I have to manually start the application each time I restart my computer. This can be inconvenient for apps that I use frequently or rely on for background processes.

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like the app to have a "Run on Start" option that allows users to configure the app to launch automatically when the system starts. This option should be toggleable in the application settings, giving users the flexibility to enable or disable it as per their preference.

Describe alternatives you've considered
An alternative could be manually adding the app to the system's startup programs via OS settings, but this approach is less user-friendly and may not be intuitive for all users. Integrating this functionality directly within the app would streamline the process.

Additional context
Providing this feature would improve user convenience and usability, especially for apps designed to run in the background. A simple checkbox or toggle button in the settings menu with a clear label like "Start application on system startup" would suffice.

This feature is common in many applications and would align with user expectations.

Hi @SurajSanap. For now, you can make FXSound run at startup by checking the following:

Check Startup Apps in Windows:

  • Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open Task Manager.
  • Go to the Startup tab and look for FXSound.
  • Ensure its status is Enabled.

Manually Add to Startup Folder (if needed):

  • Open Run (Win + R) and type "shell:startup", then press Enter.
  • Place a shortcut to FXSound in this folder.

This should ensure the app starts when you log in. Let me know if you need help!
