Why not
Of course you can.
Making MM start with windows only takes a a drag and drop with your mouse.

I agree that there should be a "Start with Windows" option, probably under Tools > Options > General. But if you don't implement that for whatever reason, please add a /Minimized command line option.
Thanks!

You can already add it to Startup yourself and set it to start minimized in the Properties in the Start Menu.

Oh yeah, forgot about that. Thanks!
But there is an interesting side effect of using that option: If I set the Windows Startup option to Minimized, then when MediaMonkey loads a mini title bar/window shows up in the bottom left corner of my primary monitor. It's only wide enough to show the "M..." in MediaMonkey and doesn't have any height...it's just the title par portion of a really small window.
Then to open MediaMonkey, I have to double-click the MediaMonkey tray icon...
twice! The first dbl-click will make that mini title bar/window disappear, the second dbl-click will open a proper window. Strange.

I'd love to see this as well. With Media Monkey's integrated media sharing, I'd be nice to have MM start with Windows in the tray.

Use windows task scheduler and start with a task job set to start at start up or logon.
I thought that way was known for long time now its the reason ms includes windows scheduler in the opsystem to use it as a timer which it is very good at. No need to add timers to programs when its already done.
