My system does this. You need to put a run key into the registry. My system
includes the following which launches a configuration batch file. You can
import .reg files into component designer, so that if you're creating a
custom component for your application, you can add the reg key to make it
auto-run there.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run]
"Startup"="c:\\startup\\startup.bat"
