It would be good to have Firefox start automatically, each time that my computer is started. I have been trying to figure out how to have the Firefox screen appear when the computer is started, but it is complicated with Windows 8.

Would you please tell me how to have Firefox start automatically when the computer is started, with Windows 8?

The info provided does not help me find the Startup Folder. My computer says that:

\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs

cannot be found. I was able to get to the run screen using Windows + R, but no screens appeared like the one in:

Can you please help me to find the Startup Folder so I can get Firefox to start automatically?
