Very surprising!  Are you sure you put the shortcut in the right folder?  MS uses different folder names & paths under different language & different OS versions.  Under Windows 7 English it would be something like:

C:\Users\<MPuser>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

where <MPuser> is the login of the user you set up to run MP.

The easiest way to get to it is usually to open up the Start Menu to "All Programs" (or whatever), right click on "Startup" (or "Autostart" or whatever) and select "Explore" from the startup menu.

As an alternative, if you are comfortable editing the registry, you could try putting the MPtray startup in the correct registry key, which will be something like:

HKEY_USERS\<SID>\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

the value under the key should be:

"MPTray"="C:\\Program Files\\Team MediaPortal\\MediaPortal\\MPTray.exe"

To find out which SID to use for the account which starts MP, look under:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList

Click on each SID underneath until you find the one with the right "ProfileImagePath" value.
