I operate my home computer from a remote location using TeamViewer. When the power and batteries are exhausted and the computer boots up automatically, I need Firefox to start automatically as well.

  1. From the desktop, drag the Firefox icon over the Start button, after about 5 seconds, the Start menu will pop up.
  2. drag the Firefox icon to Start>Programs>Startup.

Does this work for you?
