MW won't start at windows boot any more.

MW runs perfectly as it always has, but since a few months ago it does not appear after a boot up and I have to start it from a shortcut on the start menu. I tried uninstalling and running the installer as admin - but my account is admin anyway. Didn't make any difference. The only thing that changed is various Windows 10 updates. I'm using Win 10 Home 1909. Interestingly, Google Sync and Backup won't run at start up either. This is equally annoying. I'm assuming MS have introduced a new security setting somewhere. Any clues?

Under Settings >> General >> check the startup option is set to start MailWasher.
If it is, then hit CTRL + ALT + ESC to open Task Manager >> click the Startup tab >> check MailWasher is listed there and not disabled.
