Explanation

Both the Startup Folder and Task Scheduler can be used to automatically run applications or scripts at logon. The Startup Folder (found in the Start Menu or shell:startup) launches any shortcuts or executables placed in it whenever a user logs in - a simple, no-configuration method. Task Scheduler allows creating a task triggered by a 'Logon' event, offering more control over timing, user context, and conditions. File Explorer (A) is a file management utility. System Information (C) displays hardware/OS details. Programs and Features (D) is for installing/uninstalling applications. Device Manager (F) manages hardware drivers - none of these have autostart functionality.
