SyncToy Folder Window still appearing at every startup!

[Guest]

How can I stop an Explorer Window with the SyncToy folder appearing at every
startup? or is it a bug that is on the SyncToy's Team 'to be fixed list' ?
I managed to fix this problem before thanks to the answer by 'alYsa' in the
Windows XP Photos list ...
"Unwanted Explorer windows appears at every login...", dated 10/6/20....
But now I have discovered that every time I use the 'Microsoft Works
Calendar' to set myself a reminder it makes the SyncToy folder window appear
at start-up along with the Calendar Reminder.
In the Registry:
\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run,
the Microsoft Works Calendar makes an entry without the “…..†like this:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Works\WkDetect.exe, it does this every time I set
a Calendar Reminder.
Still I find SyncToy very usefull and just put up with this small anoyance
at startup.
Would any one know of a way round this please, or can some one tell me is
this problem on the 'to be fixed list'?...many thanks,

I had the same problem. Tried all methods to remove it from login and found
the following to work and easy to set up:
Open a new folder in 'Programs Files' and name it 'SyncToy'
Open Microsoft folder containing 'SyncToy' in 'Programs Files' cut and paste
contents into your new folder 'SyncToys'. Delete the original Microsoft
folder.
Hope it works for you....
