Windows does not have a good way to autostart programs with administrator privileges. This program gives you a new directory in the start menu where you can put shortcuts in, which are started with administrator privileges when you login.
Depending on your UAC settings, you might still get one UAC prompt. On startup, Elevated Startup first relaunches itself with administrator privileges (this is where you might get a UAC prompt), after which it starts the items inside the directory.
