Anyway to make this program run when I turn my pc? kind of like a "start up" with skype or steam.

You may try to do this.

1. Press Ctrl+R
2. Enter shell:startup
3. Create a shortcut for this program in the opened folder

@amoshydra's suggestion works great. This issue can probably be closed.

In order to run EZBlocker as administrator on startup/login you have to use a scheduled task, here's the file I use.
Simply exchange all the ***fields*** with your values and save the file as ezBlockerScheduleTask_RunAsAdmin.xml. As the preamble states simply execute it in a privileged shell using schtasks /create /tn "Spotify Ad-Blocker (Administrator)" /xml ezBlockerScheduleTask_RunAsAdmin.xml

I can implement a checkbox setting. The tricky part is that users may change where they decide to put EZBlocker so I'd have to add some additional checks for when the file gets moved.

Autostart option added in v1.6.7.
