At present programs in Startup open in the wrong order (One program requires
another to have been started previously). How do I control the order in
which programs start up?

Thanks.

I use:

Instead of starting each of those two (or more) programs individually
(from the startup folder or wherever), load all of them, in the order
you want, from a batch file. If you need one to finish loading before
the other starts, load using the start parameter with the /wait
switch (for more info on Start, go to a CMD window and type start /?).
You can then create a shortcut to the batch file and put it in the
Startup folder.
