You can start applications in three ways: using the Application Starter menu, the Run command, or Autostart.

The Application Starter button on the Panel opens the Application Starter menu. This menu lets you start applications located in the Applications submenu or the Quick Start menu.

The following illustration displays the Application Starter button, the Application Starter menu, the Applications submenu, and the Quick Start menu.

Autostart lets you open applications automatically each time you log in to the desktop. For example, if you always read email when you first log in to the desktop, you can set Autostart to automatically start your email application on startup.
