Curve card anti-embarrassment option

In this post I only want to share my experience that i had lately (few times this year already) using the "Embarrassment" option from Curve card product that i talked about a while ago (i not sponsored in any way nor affiliated, i just liked the experience for a long time).

This opportunity was absolute necessary as since 1 January you need to authorize the card transactions with 3DSecure, some sort of SCA (Strong Customer Authentication). So practically AutoTopUps like the ones from Revolut are somewhat "illegal":

So how this functionality it is helping you? Simple, you can define the fallback cards that can be used instead the ones that have no money in it because you didn't autotopup on time. More details here (experience is a must);

Having a Program from Startup folder (current user or all) start AGAIN - Windows 10 issue

Has not been a while at all since Windows 10 surprized everybody with bugs all over again... I was pissed off fr two days of looking for an answer why some programs do not want to start automatically when droped off on Startup folder (for current user or for All users, doesn't matter). Lot of stupid answers from people from microsoft that recommend to do a sfc scan. Luckily, most of us are not so stupid to screw up other things trying to fix simple ones.

So the solution is by changing the EnableLUA to 0:

Run > Regedit: Set the key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Policies \ System \ EnableLUA to 0

Most of us using UAC to never notify previously in the upgraded windows version but in my case was a clean install as after some updates period promrams on startup ceased to work.
