I'm trying to make my python script run upon startup but I get the error message windowserror access denied, but I should be able to make programs start upon boot because teamviewer ( a third-party program I downloaded ) runs every time I restart my computer so I know that I should be able to make my program run at startup (I might be doing something different though, so if you could shed some light on what teamviewer is doing differently to get its script to run at startup that would be helpful).
Here is my script
import _winreg, webbrowser
key = _winreg.OpenKey(_winreg.HKEY_CURRENT_USER,'Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run')
_winreg.SetValueEx(key,'pytest',0,_winreg.REG_BINARY,'C:\Users\"USERNAME"\Desktop\test.py')
key.Close()
webbrowser.open('www.youtube.com')
Any input is appreciated.
