I've created a wallpaper changer that I want to start up on system
boot.
I know that I can put a shortcut for my app in the startup folder. How
can I get the install program for my app to add a shortcut for all
users.
If I do have a shortcut in the startup folder, I can see the current
wallpaper before switching to the next wallpaper in the queue after
system boot. Is there a way of executing my app before Windows shows
the desktop?

true, but would someone really want to install a service on the computer
just to change their wallpaper? I would not. A better way would be to
add it to the registry for startup. This is processed on system start
for HKLM or user logon for HKCU.
