Hi, I would say that your Startup folder has lost its startup
functionality and maybe the entry in OS2.INI is not synchronized
anymore with your current object handles.
It's not so hard to check that and to re-add it to the OS2.INI:
o The ini application is "PM_Workplace:Startup".
The contained keys point to the WPS handle(s) of the startup
folder(s). The value is a "Y" with trailing nulls, or anything
else (if you want to deactivate a startup folder manually and by
ini editing).
o How to get the handle of an startup folder object with eWP or XWP:
Open the properties of the startup folder that contains your
objects. On the Icon tab press the "Details..." button. You see
the Object handle of that folder. (My is e.g. 0x3C779.)
o Fix your OS2.INI with an ini editor:
Go to the application "PM_Workplace:Startup". Add the hex value
from above without the "3" as an ini key. (I have there "C779".)
Add the value "Y.." = "59 00 00".
