I know this is an old post, but today I was looking for this answer and couldn't find one. I figured it out for Windows 10 and am posting my notes for future reference for posterity.
# ISSUE: Dexpot doesn't auto-launch anymore in Windows 10 after install and despite clicking the settings option to start during Windows startup.
# RESOLUTION: Add the following Windows registry entry (may require admin privileges):
1a. Press the "Windows Key" and "r" and type "regedit.exe" to launch the registry editor.
1b. Alternative is to use Cortana to search for "Command Prompt", then right-click and select "run as administrator" and then type "regedit.exe".
2. Navigate to the following key and add the following string value:
Key: Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
Value Name: Dexpot
Value Data (String): C:\Program Files (x86)\Dexpot\Dexpot.exe
3. Logout and back in (or reboot) to confirm.
