How can a PowerShell script be automatically run on startup?

Question

I have a PowerShell script to monitor an image folder. I need it to run automatically on startup.

I tried to use MSConfig, but I could not find it in that list.

How can I have the script automatically run on startup?

Copy ps1 into this folder, create it if necessary.

C:\Windows\System32\GroupPolicy\Machine\Scripts\Startup

On Windows 10 personal machine

I added my startup bat script to this folder:

C:\Users\bsheps\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

The script runs automatically every time I log in to my computer.
