/// registry key at <c>HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run</c>. This is the
/// same mechanism many Windows apps use for "launch on login"; the entry shows up in Task
/// Manager's Startup tab so the user can also toggle it off there if they ever want to.
///
/// Why HKCU\...\Run rather than dropping a .lnk into the Startup folder:
///   - No COM interop / IShellLink wrangling; just RegistryKey.SetValue.
///   - User-scoped (HKCU): no admin elevation needed and only affects this user.
///   - Manageable via Task Manager → Startup, which is where Windows users now expect to
///     find login-launched apps.
///
/// All methods catch all exceptions and return success bools — flipping the toggle in the
/// Startup behaviour dialog should never throw, even on policy-locked machines.
