Microsoft.Windows.AppLifecycle.ActivationRegistrationManager.RegisterForStartupActivation(System.String,System.String)

-description

Registers to activate the app when when the app is started by the user logging into the Windows OS, either because of a registry key, or because of a shortcut in a well-known startup folder.

-parameters

-param taskId

An app-defined ID that can be used to unregister for startup activations later by using the UnregisterForStartupActivation method.

-param exePath
