If you want to get a list of all startup applications on your Windows 8 with PowerShell cmdlets, you can use the "Get-WmiObject" cmdlet as described in this tutorial:
1. Start a PowerShell window
2. Run the following command.
C:\fyicenter> powershell Windows PowerShell Copyright (C) 2012 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved. PS C:\fyicenter> get-wmiobject Win32_StartupCommand | select-object -property name,command,location | format-list > startup-programs-2.txt
3. Open startup-programs-2.txt in Notepad. You see a list of startup programs recorded in the file, as shown in the example below:
name : OpenOffice.org 3.2 command : OpenOffice.org 3.2.lnk location : Startup name : Google Update command : C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Local\Google\Update\1.3.33.7\GoogleUpdateCore.exe location : HKU\S-1-5-21-867...\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run name : McAfee Security Scan Plus command : C:\PROGRA~1\MCAFEE~1\311~1.599\SSSCHE~1.EXE location : Common Startup name : Microsoft Office command : C:\PROGRA~2\MICROS~1\Office10\OSA.EXE -b -l location : Common Startup name : Apoint command : C:\Program Files\DellTPad\Apoint.exe location : HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run name : SysTrayApp command : C:\Program Files\IDT\WDM\sttray64.exe location : HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run name : QuickSet command : c:\Program Files\Dell\QuickSet\QuickSet.exe location : HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run name : IntelTBRunOnce command : wscript.exe //b //nologo "C:\Program Files\Intel\TurboBoost\RunTBGadgetOnce.vbs" location : HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run name : BTMTrayAgent command : rundll32.exe "C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Bluetooth\btmshell.dll",TrayApp location : HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run name : IgfxTray command : C:\Windows\system32\igfxtray.exe location : HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run name : HotKeysCmds command : C:\Windows\system32\hkcmd.exe location : HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run name : Persistence command : C:\Windows\system32\igfxpers.exe location : HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
Keep this file startup-programs.txt in a safe place, so that you can compare it at a later time to see if there are any new startup programs are added in your system.
