How to prevent Windows from preloading programs
I have a script, that I want to run when I start my Windows 10 computer. It's intend is to restrict my usage of the computer and it will shutdown the computer, if I use the computer to much.
At the moment I added the script to the autostart-queue of my computer.
The problem is, when someone else starts the computer after me Windows starts all my autostart programs including the script. This means, that those other users are kicked out although, the script is in my startup queue not in theirs.
Is their any to start the script automatically after login not after startup?

Can you clarify what you mean by the "autostart-queue"? Did you place the script in the C:Users<Your_Username>AppDataRoamingMicrosoftWindowsStart MenuProgramsStartup directory?

I also found my error (quite likely because I asked the question). There is an option in the login settings, basically saying: "Automatically Login on startup, but you still have to enter your password to actually get access to it." (I'm using a not-english version so I can't quote it directly). I can't remember activating this setting so I guess it might be the default setting.

@Moab The Windows Task Manager also solves the problem, but also just after killing this Autologin-Without-Password-Option^^'
